Send text messages from contact to "Spam" folder

I have iPhone 12. Is there a way to have text messages from a specific contact be sent to a "Spam" folder? Or is there an App that can do that?

Blocking SPAM text messages So, my iPhone receives a huge amount of SPAM in the form of text messages. My question is this: If I turn on Filter Unknown Senders (Located in Settings > Messages) is it still possible to somehow receive a text from a sender that isn’t in my contact list? Is there a SPAM folder? For example, I may need to receive a factor two text message from a number not on in my contacts. Would I first have to shut off the Filter and then receive the factor two code - or could I somehow retrieve the desired message located in a SPAM folder somewhere? Anyway, I’d like to block every number that isn’t in my contact list to rid myself of receiving several SPAM text messages a day - but, that may not be feasible. Any ideas? Not sure if this matters, but I"m using an iPhone 7 Plus (with the latest iOS).

You can block that specific contact, see this Apple article:
