Q: MMS is ruining my life

I bought my daughter an ipod touch for her birthday.

 

someone she does not know added her to an MMS message - along with 20 other kids.   now her iphone continuously receives messages from this group at all hours at night.

 

we have contacted the group - but no one seems willing to stop using the same message thread.

 

we don't know who originally started the thread.

 

please help.  I'm about ready to throw her ipod in the garbage.

So it's an iPod Touch 4th gen? Might be a good idea to update your profile with that information.

 

Message blocking was only introduced with iOS 7. I am not aware of any way to prevent these messages from reaching her without changing her Apple/iTunes/iCloud ID, and doing that can have its own issues if she has ever purchased anything from iTunes.

 

Sorry,
