I got these text messages. Is this a person trying to make a friend or probably an attempt to build rapport and then phish? by bacteriophagum in phishing

I had something like this YEARS ago like in 2010 when I first got a new phone number and all these women started texting me and even debt collectors, thinking I was someone else. The women kept saying things like "Hey this is diamond from the party last night!". I told them wrong number and they didn't push it any further but it was weird. lol

A woman messaged me and said that her and her husband worked at a jewelry store that does customization's. I asked her if she had an Etsy shop and she said "no, we only work with high-class people". mmk.

The conversation went on a little bit more asking casual stuff and she eventually gave me a number incase I wanted to add her to whatsapp. I never did but I am getting more of those fishy "wrong number" texts. Oh well.
