El-Sayed for MI Senate is sending me private messages on Facebook.

[LeftInTX]

I'm not friends with him, I don't even like or follow his page. I've never contributed to his campaign.

I have been getting text messages from him, but I get text messages from everyone, but FB Messenger?

Oh well. I'm not upset, but what time and effort did he go through to look me up? I know they get phone numbers from VAN. They run huge lists that spit out names and numbers and then create an automated text through Hustle. (That's why everyone gets texts ad nauseum)

But FB Messenger? That's a new one.

It's not a spoof. It's a fundraising pitch.....
I do have Arabic FB friend that follows him. And I've got an Armenian maiden name, but if you try to search for ME people in VAN, because my married name is Hispanic, it lists my demographic as "Hispanic".

Oh well...

ETA: Maybe he used a tool in FB that targets demographics. My posts all indicate that I'm Armenian and that I'm a Democrat and that I'm involved in campaigns etc.
