My kids know perfectly well that I'd block the number of any such request. The lazy, scrounging bar-stewards!

Only kidding.

I got one a couple of hours ago, it's a +63 number which is The Philippines and says only "Location" no intention of even reading it.

Wife had one years ago, preying on vulnerables or somebody who is it a moment of lapse.
