I've been known to text them back some very very NSFW images. That tends to put a stop to it (until the next batch of wannabe flippers gets that number).
I sent one a sex hotline number and actually tricked the guy on the other end. Still didn't stop them.
It probably helps that I have a couple of things in my favor.
The phone number that gets those texts/calls the most has an area code I've never lived in. When I needed a new direct line I chose a Florida area code because I grew up there but I've never lived in the 727.
It's in my work phone at the moment and tmobile has some pretty good spam filtering.
I'm happy to share my long term strategy to deal with spam calls/texts but every time I have I get pushback from the peanut gallery.
I have something like 6 numbers, probably soon to be 7 when I add a number to our family Gmail account. I get very very little spam across all of my numbers and the ones I do get are either the flippers, election shit or someone looking for someone who used to have that number.

I love zipping up the craziest furry porn I can find into a .zip folder, telling them that my bitcoin wallet code is in there, and then watched the poor assholes unzip the file and starting the wailing and gnashing of teeth. I suppose I could start bundling malware, but I really like the psychological effects of hardcore CBT furry hyper airplane porn better. Memories that will last a lifetime :)
Memories, all alone in the moonlight...
