Hello @NICHOLAS-1997,


Welcome to Community Forums! Thank you for this great question.


Please check this out, AT&T Mobile Security & Call Protect offers options for the text messaging issue.


The following is device specific blocking text messages:


Block Unwanted or Spam Text Messages iPhone

Go to the Messages app.

Tap on the message from the spammer.

Choose details on the top right hand corner.

There will be phone icon and a letter “i” icon across from the number.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and then tap on Block this Caller.


Block text messages on Android

To add numbers to block list.

Tap on the Menu at the top left corner of the screen.

From there tap on “Block list.”

In the Block list, there will be three different ways to control text blocking, Sender, Series and Word. You can navigate between options by tapping on them or swiping left or right.


Again thank you for the great question and reach back out to us if further assistance is required.


Have a wonderful day.
