This is what San Francisco and the FTC say about flyers and jobs.
Read October 31, 2026, with a link to each page.
San Francisco lets the public post flyers on some utility poles.
SF.gov says the public may post on some utility poles if the postings follow the city’s flyer rules, adopted so flyers on public property do not contribute to litter or blight.
SF.gov: Report illegal postings and flyersSan Francisco lists flyers with no posting date among the illegal ones.
The same page lists flyers with no posting date, flyers posted for over 70 days and flyers posted too high on the pole as illegal postings.
SF.gov: Report illegal postings and flyersThe FTC warns about a client who sends a check for too much.
Its page on fake checks says the person asks you to deposit a check, usually for more than they owe you, and to send some of the money back. It can take weeks for a bank to find that the check is fake.
FTC Consumer Advice: How To Spot, Avoid, and Report Fake Check ScamsThe FTC says call blocking is the best defense against unwanted calls.
Its page on blocking calls says the best defense against unwanted calls is call blocking and call labeling, because scammers do not care about the National Do Not Call Registry.
FTC Consumer Advice: How To Block Unwanted CallsThe FTC says legitimate companies will not ask for your account details by text.
Its page on spam texts says that if you get a text you were not expecting that asks for personal or financial information, you should not click any links.

People ask these questions about a number for service flyers.
More in the full FAQ.
Create a number in your dashboard and name it after the service, such as Lawn care. It is live in about a minute. Print it on the flyer and every tab. Calls ring the phone you already carry, and the caller only ever sees the number you gave them.
Use one for each. A number named after the service keeps the callers for one job apart from the others, and you can burn the one that has run its season without touching the rest.
Burn it in one tap, and calls and texts to it stop at once. Take your flyers down when you do. Many cities say how long a flyer may stay up.
No. Your numbers are receive-only: they take calls and texts, and they never make them. You answer calls on your own phone, and you cannot reply to a text from the inbox.
Yes. Every number has three modes: Forward rings your phone and lets texts in, Texts only stops calls and keeps the texts coming, and Block stops both. You change the mode from your dashboard.
