Blocking SMS/ Text Spam...How without opening the text?

The problem is that for spam messages, I have to open the text to access their info and then block them. If they can tell that I am opening the messages, then they will see me as a potential target. So. I want to be able to block, without opening the text.

Is that possible?

iPhone 12, iOS 15

They have no way of knowing you open the text message.
