Maids

Another text arrived from a number I did not recognize, addressed to a name that is not mine ("Mauri"). The cover this time is a maid-service business offering a holdover discount from a previous engagement that does not exist. The opening structure is the canonical hop-seeding shape: unknown sender, wrong name, friendly tone, an explicit prompt to reply ("Would you like me to check a spot for you?").

This time I did not reply.

The screenshot is kept here. Each individual instance has limited evidentiary weight on its own; the value emerges when the full year of these is collected, the numbers and timing compared, and the pattern analyzed across the set.
