SMS bombers like BombITUP are the new trends in GenZ, but everything has positives and negatives. As far as fun is concerned, sms bombers are one of the best internet pranks till date but what if YOU are the one getting targetted?
In this article, I’ll be addressing one of the most popular questions in regards to SMS bombers i.e., “How to Stop BombitUP Messages?” —- so without wasting any time, let’s get started.
How to Stop BombitUP Messages? (3 Methods)
BombitUP is a prank-based application that enables users to send multiple spam messages at once, making the victim perplexed and anxious about it. It sends OTPs from companies like Zest, Bajaj, and more.
But how can you save yourself from something like this? If you receive bulk OTPs and you are well aware that it is a prank — staying calm and using the insightful methods below is what will save you:
1. The Protection List
The protection list is a list offered by the BombITUP founders, which allows you to enter your number and keep yourself safe from any SMS attacks.
Keep in mind that the attacker isn’t aware that you used the protection list, so act as if you’re frustrated with the texts in case you know who the attacker is. In case the attacker becomes aware that you used the protection list, they might change their bomber app and use any other application like Turbo Bomber.
Pro tip: Put your number in the protect list of all popular bomber apps.
2. Turn Notifications OFF
The sole purpose of using SMS bombers is to irritate the victim, but what if they get over it? You’ll be safe from the bombarding if you turn off the notifications and this works for iPhone and macOS too.
If you’re struggling to get rid of bulk messages while you’re playing a game or watching a movie, just turn off the SMS app’s notifications. And turn it back on once you are watching or playing, and nobody is so idle that they’ll bombard 24×7 just for fun.
3. The Smart Way!
I know it sounds ridiculous, but what if you removed the path for the attacker? No, I’m not asking you to change your phone number!!
OTPs are sent from a set websites/apps that most of us don’t use or care about – I mean who needs MarutiSuzuki text messages? So, simply block or put these OTPs in the spam folder —- one carrier a time! This way, you’ll bypass almost 90% of the messages without losing on important messages.
Bonus Tip (for iPhone & PC)
An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, but striking back with more power will make them taste their own medicine, won’t it?
So, if you want, you can bomb back with more power using the web app BombitUP (https://bombitup.info/#online) —- and the hack is to open it on multiple tabs and bomb at once!
