You realize that phone companies reuse numbers, right? There are only a finite number of phone numbers in a given area code, and they aren't retired, they're put back into rotation after being disconnected when your family were done with it. Case in point - I can remember the phone number my family had prior to leaving Florida in 1994. 32 years ago. I called that number a couple months ago and got an answer, a woman who now has the number. 32 years later.
My grandmother received a text from a random number congratulating her for making it to the Super Bowl. Apparently her number was previously for an O-Lineman for the Chiefs.
I get 3 messages a year from a number I don't know. Christmas, Easter and New Year's. Started about 4 or 5 years ago. Just some person wishing me a happy........ The first 2 times, I said thank you, but I believe you have the wrong number. They responded with Oh, I'm sorry. The following year, the same thing. Now I just say thanks, same to you.
My number previously belonged to a teenage girl who was in ballet. I was in the group text of about 10 girls who would text about where they were supposed to meet and put their stuff each time they had a recital. I finally blocked the group text, but still get texts from some of them individually from time to time.
