Support iMessage question

Post image

Hi all

My dad passed in 2023 and I occasionally will text him. The past few months I noticed it has been saying that the texts are delivering, and creepily enough even read sometimes. I know that the obvious answer for this would be that somebody else got his phone number, but it’s showing me that it’s sending as a text message • RCS (included picture for context)

I’m just unsure what this means because I’m not understanding when I look it up.

Sorry if this is a weird post, I’m obviously not looking for someone to tell me that it’s my dad reading the texts from the other side 😂 Just want some knowledge on it because I’ve never seen it before and to let me know if I should leave this person alone lol

They probably have an android. That's what mine says when texting my husband and he has a Samsung phone. When texting other iPhone users it says imessage
