If you get an unwanted text message, there are three ways to report it:

Copy the message and forward it to 7726 (SPAM). This helps your wireless provider spot and block similar messages in the future.

Report it on the messaging app you use. Look for the option to report junk or spam.

Report it to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov

So they pass the buck to other people who don’t care and don’t even have the power to do anything about it. Then they give you a link to report fraud, which is an entirely different crime.

You’re right. See my edit.
