Tachyon Interference?
This new Kyocera is impressive!
I just got a text on my new phone dated January 18.
Today is the 15th.
The text is reminding me that my voice mail subscription ends tomorrow...which presumably means in 4 days.
I'm getting spam from the future.
Whut?

Update: And I just now figured out how to do a screencap of it too.

I was surprised that my latest phone didn't have a voice mail app, until suddenly I had to install one. I was used to calling the voicemail number, but instead, I now get texts that apparently signal the phone to download the recordings, and annoyingly, it won't do it over WiFi.
Also, the volume is incredibly low.

I've been with Verizon for a year and a half or so and I haven't even bothered setting up my voicemail yet. If I did it would just get filled up with in medias res garbage from spammers.
Yesterday I answered a "lower your Visa interest rate" call. I've taken to doing that and trolling the callers to waste their time since they're so willing to waste mine. I asked them how many times a day they were going to call me. Sometimes I ask which bank my Visa card is with.
Today a "your Apple has a virus" or whatever scammer called me--I didn't even listen to the rest of the pitch, just hit 1. Told the guy my day was great when he asked, and then asked why they were calling me when I don't own any Apple devices. He said "Sir, this is Apple technical support calling you" and hung up in the middle of a word.
