I did the exact same thing. I got 7 calls during covid when I was streaming every day. They tracked down 5 of them.

What’s the context of telling them your a streamer? Why would there possibly be a mixup?

unfortunately I know that this might help in some very niche cases but if they call in with a genuine sounding threat they will ignore whatever order that you gave them to call or whatever they will swap you it is just protocol and unfortunately there's nothing you can do to stop it coupled YouTubers I know that got swatted one of them got shot and is now paralyzed and another one their dog got shot in the process of swatting it just happens and unfortunately no matter what they will SWAT you and with a genuine threat they will not care

weird, just yesterday YouTube suggested me a video of a streamer that following a threat from a viewer to swat him reported it to his local police and was still swatted... the guy is in the hospital paralyzed because the police entered with violence and without warning and the guy tried to defend himself and his mother with a pew pew registered to his mother name and the police responded in kind... according to google this happened in April this year

I live in an area that you'd have a helllllll of a time getting a swat. 🤣 These folks would laugh into next week. Tiny enough I know most our law enforcement and I don't get out much.
