Last week someone texted my wife saying that they had information about me cheating on her with escorts. I convinced her that it was a scam due to the amount of information publicly available about me. Is this happening to anyone else? A search of the phone number doesn’t reveal anything.
But in this case, it's from a rather stupid scammer. Usually, they would text you first threatening to text your wife UNLESS you pay.
Texting her first blows the deal.
But consider some alternates, like someone from your current or past who doesn't like you. Or someone from your wife's current or past who DOES like her and is willing to try to (anonymously) destroy your marriage to get a chance with her.
Save the screen shots, document the text details (number, time, etc.) and if you are contacted again, file a report with your local vice/fraud desk at a police station, or FBI. Whether you see escorts or not, extortion threats are a felony.
Did they ask anything from her in return? Unless they’re trying to get something out of it, it’s not a scam, or it’s an idiot who doesn’t know how to scam. The fact this person went directly to her sounds more like someone who has it out for you.
