Why do I not have “report junk” on texts from people not in my contacts?

To report phishing and scams it says messages that are from people not in your contacts will have a “Report Junk” link.... it doesn’t. I keep getting the same text with 20+ numbers in a group text and a link to a webpage. Yes I have blocked each number and no I don’t open the link, but I want to report since it keeps happening

That option is only available for iMessages, not SMS or MMS messages.

On most carriers, you can forward the messages to 7726 (SPAM) to report spam text messages.
