iPhone 13 pro is not receiving texts from unknown numbers

I'm receiving calls from unknown numbers, but texts from unknown numbers are not coming through at all. If the number isn't in my contacts, I can't receive a text.....

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 15

Try this: Go to Settings>Messages, scroll down to "Message Filtering" where you'll see "Unknown & Spam". Tap that and turn off "Filter Unknown Senders." Now you should be able to receive texts from people not in your contact list.
