This seems very specific to a few regions, India mostly.

Google is doing a really good job catching and blocking spam as far as I'm concerned. Even scammers aren't trying their luck over RCS in any way significant compared to Telegram, WhatsApp, or even iMessage.

Apparently India now includes part of the United States. I use an iPhone and RCS is a steady stream of spam to me. (My number is publicly listed.)
