How am I getting bad messages right after I changed my phone number?
If they are coming from the file apps and seem a little shady and off brand,dont reply to them,they are probally scammers trying to scam you

With iMessages, you can receive messages both on your phone number and on your Apple ID email - or if you have added other emails.
You can see which phone numbers and e-mails you can be contacted at here:
Settings → Messages → Send & Receive
Under "You can receive iMessages to and reply from" remove the checkmarks from your email address(es).
Alternatively, you can block the numbers from which you do not want to receive messages.

What do you mean by “bad messages”.Are they not going through?
No, I am receiving messages like this
Nice🙂
I have been selecting the messages without opening them, deleting and report as junk. I just deleted my email checkmarks.
Thank you so much. It’s getting late on the east coast. Thanks again.

Perfect. Hopefully that will do the trick to get rid of annoying messages.
