Jack Wallen shows you how easy it is to block and report spam SMS messages on the Android platform.

How to block spam SMS. You'll be shocked at how easy this is.

This is for when you receive a spam SMS message that slips through the automated process and you want to make sure the offending sender can never send to you again.

Figure B. You can also check what messages have been blocked by tapping the menu button in the top-right of the Messages app window and selecting Spam & Blocked.

If you find a message in that folder which has accidentally been marked as spam, tap the message in question and then tap Not Spam.

Anytime they send you another message, it will automatically go directly to the Spam & Blocked folder, which you can view by tapping the Settings button in Android Messages and tapping Spam & Blocked.
