Two weeks ago I could not stop myself from replying to an unsolicited email lying about President Biden and trying to frighten me into buying gold coins. Since then I’ve receive about 20 similar emails a day. While answering the original one was therapeutic, and I knew I’d probably pay for it with a barrage of junk emails, I didn’t expect this honor to be bestowed upon me:

3. Living legend, huh.

What do ya get? Maybe some golden shoes worth thousands of dollars and for you, our living legend, just $29.99. Such a deal. They will be hand delivered when you pay $3000.00 for your seat at trump’s inauguration.

9. LIVING LEGEND STATUS

I received the exact same message around the same time as you. I am certain it is a malicious text not sent by Lara trump or the RNC.

While I am a lifelong Republican, I did text a certain right wing radio host that I would NOT vote for that "sore loser Donald Trump again".

My guess is some bad actor not affiliated with the RNC compiled a list of thousands of "never Trumpers" such as you and me and setup a malicious phishing scam to install malware on your device if you click the link.

I instantly recognized it as a phishing ploy and Googled the verbage. That brought me here. I only joined this forum to pass that along. I doubt I'll be back.
Cheers!

P.S. I strongly suggest you DO NOT reply, DO NOT text STOP, and DO NOT click on the link.

11. YAY, MLAA.. AH RAH-RAH-RAH!!

13. A little while ago I received a text from Uday Trump on my work phone....

It was a grift for money as usual....

I replied:
"GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU VILE IDIOT SCUMBAG!!!"

The reply text from him was:
"you have been successfully unsubscribed"

That was pretty satisfying....
