Forward them to 7726. To forward a message on an iPhone, select the message, select “more”, click the forward arrow (bottom right), enter the recipient (in this case 7726) and send.

How do you "select" a message? If I click on the message I get a pop up box that asks me to create a new contact etc etc but nothing like select. Can anyone tell me how to select the message. I also need to know where to go to find the text message app. I spoke to Donald earlier and wrote notes but I don't understand them now that it's hours later and I've gotten another one. Yesterday I got over twenty and I got two overnight and two today.... so far. And they are all from Facetime wanting me to join them. As if I would.

When I want to report spam text I edit the text to include the phone number the text (supposedly) comes from. But the automated reply tells me to include the phone number or email. But I already did. Do I have to send the phone number in a separate reply?
