How To Block Spam Text Messages On Your AT&T iPhone

Author: , Posted on Thursday, December 29th, 2011 at 1:06:52pm

If the spam comes from an actual phone number you can report the number directly to AT&T…

  1. Tap and hold the body of the text message, then choose Copy.
  2. Create a new text message to 7726 (SPAM on the keypad).
  3. Paste in the spam message you just copied and send it.
    Note: Sending this message won’t cost you anything, nor will the replies from AT&T.
  4. AT&T will send you a thank-you message and ask you to reply with the phone number of the sender.
  5. Type in the phone number that sent the spam in the first place and hit Send.
