Unwanted sexually explicit text messages and videos

How can I stop these unwanted messages? I block the numbers as they are usually group messages and delete the message. I just keep getting more and more. 3-5 a day. I opened one once not knowing what it was and it was disgusting.

iPhone 11, iOS 14
