These guys have spammed me three times today via SMS, even after unsubscribing from all their notifications.

I'm sorry but I cannot take them seriously. Who in hell thought this is normal or acceptable?

Same here, as if an unsolicited SMS with attachments will be effective. I also unsubscribed a while back after reading about issues similar to what's mentioned in other comments here.

Wow here in Europe it's the opposite. Every sms I get is either spam, 2FA or some provider notification.

I literally get no personal messages via SMS anymore and I haven't for years.

Pretty sure SMS is pretty expensive fines per message in the US especially if there’s no unsubscribe feature, let alone one that doesn’t work.
