I have also noticed this the past couple weeks. I don’t think it’s related to Facebook- I deleted my Facebook account before 2019. However, I’ve also recently had discussions with Twilio (all of the below is non-confidential information according to our conversation): The carriers are cracking down on sms spam. They are going to force registration of all businesses sending texts, not just with services like Twilio, but with them. And prices / rent-seeking from the carriers is going up - they are going to charge for each campaign/brand you run. So in the end you’ll see less spam, but texting will also cost more for companies that send them. The initial rollout by AT&T was supposed to start 5/1, though that’s now been pushed back. Spammers are likely in their death throes, trying to get their last spam out before they get shut down or priced out.
