Spam Text in iMessages

How does one report to Apple security on spam texts sent to iMessages. I’ve already reported to carrier and to FTC. And how do you block these texts from unknown senders? Thank You

iMessage SMS spam everyday - no phone number to block Does anybody else keep getting spam SMS gambling/casino messages everyday? Usually there is no phone number just a name (with no option to block/mark as spam on iPhone as the screen with the block option has no number/ name ), I am literally reporting them to 7726 everyday but feel like I’m wasting my time! Doing some research the IDENTICAL messages and senders names seem to originate from these sms generator sites receive-smss.com, etc These sites allow spammers and phishers to hide their true id (the sms messages are not legit marketing messages from casinos as the sms has links take you to some dodgy fake casino websites, which is their aim). PLEASE CAN IPHONE INTRODUCE A FEATURE TO BLOCK THESE ANONYMOUS MESSAGES WITH NO NUMBER?!

Reporting them is the besy way to tackle them.

In UK we forward them to 7726

I agree and tried that too in the States. But they are coming as email addresses

They are possibly masquerading as emails

In the (i) info icons in messages can you trace them to a phone number?
