This situation is happening to me and I have the I Phone. Over the past few weeks I have tried 2- I Phones, Droid Incredible 2, Droid X , Blackberry Tour and Bold all have had the same issue. I was told by Verizon to change my number. I did that 2 times and still not fixed. It even happend while trying Blackberry Messenger.

This has happened to me at, least 3 times today alone. This is insane and extremely embarrassing. I pay for unlimited texts yet i'm afraid to send them because I don't want them going to the wrong people. And when I called Verizon they made it seem like I was doing something wrong. There needs to be a solution soon. Its been going on for months.

1. Others have stated that installing Handcent, doesn't fix the issue.  2. If it did, this would be a "work around" and not a solution. 

Having said that.  I've had this issue only since installing the last big update.  It had been happening multiple times a day.  I was very careful to make sure I was on the correct person and watched as I hit Send.  Then watched as it went to another person.  
The only work around that has thus worked for me is to keep my text message history cleared out.  Meaning, I don't keep many old texts anymore.  This seems to have fixed my issue for now.  If it happens I just go delete messages and I'm good for a while again.  

I would love for Verizon to acknowledge this as and issue and get to work on a patch to get it fixed.

Well, the guy on the first page said they were going to fix it, but that was awhile back. It just started on my phone.

this is not a thunderbolt or verizon specific issue

 

it is the operating system, cross carrier, multi devices.. 2.2 just sends txt to wrong people

 

the best option is a 3rd party app for text msg so you aren't using the stock application

I have been having this problem and its total **bleep** that Verizon just blaming HTC.
Verizon Wireless sold the phone and makes more money on the txt messaging plans than HTC will ever see on all their handsets combined. 

All and all pretty lame.
