View submission: Receiving several slightly threatening texts from various numbers. Is there a way to unmask the numbers?

Not really.

If they only "slightly threatening", it's probably not a police matter.

You're not forced to read the messages. Delete, block, ignore. Never, ever respond.

I didn't answer because I was sleeping

Don't answer calls from unknown numbers. At all. Ever. If it's as genuine caller, they'll leave a message. If it's the stalker they might too, but you can just delete that.

If it does become more serious, it's the police's job to "unmask" the numbers, not yours.

I havent responded at all.

I've blocked every time and they just get a new number and continue texting. I think I need a new number, as well as my mother.
