How do you block someone on iMessage?
I've blocked the person in my contacts via "block this caller" but they can still send me texts on iMessage. How do I block this person completely?

How to block someone via the Messages on the iPhone or iPad

If you block someone, they do not receive any notification that they have been blocked. The only way for them to know would be for you to tell them. Furthermore, if they send you an iMessage, it will say that it was delivered on their phone, so they won't even know that you're not seeing their message. All the blocked feature does is block you from seeing the call/message on your phone. It is not a block by the carrier, it doesn't prevent it from being sent, only from being seen on your end.
