Did Verizon Get Hacked?

Or did they sell their customer’s phone numbers?

Or maybe the completion of the Yahoo acquisition has triggered something? Whatever it is - until today I had never received a single piece of spam as text through my phone … and maybe one spam phone call every couple of months. Today, I have received 7 spam texts and 5 spam phone calls … and we still are only half way through the day. What’s up with that?
