Unwanted text messages

When i receive an unwanted text message i locate the sender and block the sender. I am still getting texts from these numbers. How do i stop text messages from numbers i have blocked? How do i send unwanted text messages to the junk folder? Thank you.

Unfortunately, many SMS messages are not from the sender that the “number” might otherwise imply. SMS headers are notoriously easy to forge - and this technique, known as SMS Spoofing, is regularly employed by spammers.
