Getting a “new” phone number might be a way to disconnect you from that number if you keep it on the down low, but there’s a high probability your gonna get someones old number that died or lost it and has LOTS of people/companies that wanna contact this number.
When my son got a phone (and number), the previous owner didn’t tell anyone, not her pharmacy, not her friends and family. It took a long time to get all that BS behind us.
2.5 years later my work phone is still getting contacted for the previous owner. Last text was last week and was a tech support call for a blue screen reboot loop, I answered that I saw the issue, windows. so I suggested linux or contacting their actual support
