Spam emails to bogus AOL accounts

So i tried the blocking as suggested by un_professional but they keep changing the name. My first name x@aol.com. My Name x6@aol.com. Is there a way to block all from my name whatever and aol.com?

Hey fkonicke,


If we understand correctly, you're receiving spam emails and would like to know how to block them from appearing. Many times spammers will change their email address, which means you'll need to add them to your blocked list too. Just in case, those steps can be found under "Block email from specified senders" here: Flag emails in Mail on iPhone - Apple Support


There's other great details on blocking phone numbers, emails, Messages, and more found here: Block phone numbers, contacts, and emails on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


You can also help by moving those types of emails to your junk folder. Just in case, those steps can be found under "Move an email to junk" here: Organize email in mailboxes on iPhone - Apple Support


We also thought the information about the Mail Privacy Protection would be helpful for you. This feature helps by hiding your IP address and other activity. Take a look at the following guide for more details and how to turn that feature on: Use Mail Privacy Protection on iPhone - Apple Support


Lastly, with this being an AOL account, we encourage you to reach out to their support to see if they have options for spam and junk emails on their side too. Here's their support page to help: Get Support - AOL Help


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


Take care!
