I know this is the "don't do this but do something else" answer, but just in case you've not thought of it, some places use satellite phones for this purpose.

Yeah this is honestly either block the number or contact law enforcement. It's not an HR thing, tbh. You cannot get any valid proof.

Company policy could easily make it an HR thing that could cost the other person their job.

Without valid proof?

Proof has nothing to do with if it is an HR thing or not. It is an HR thing if company policy has something about employee behavior between each other that is potentially being violated.

If so, then it is HR's job to deal with things like proof and facts. While doing so, HR can also determine to send it to the authorities even if the recipient does not. Or just keep it as an internal action such as discipline up to termination.

So I create a fake text and get someone else terminated?

Cell companies arent going to turn over texts to HR departments. They would have to get law enforcement involved. So there is basically no way to verify if it is real without getting law enforcement involved.

That's correct. HR departments just don't have the rights to force companies to turn over that kind of data.
