[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3593188, member: 26737"] You're seeing the list because it's a group text. If you look right above the message, it should show the number of the jackwagon who sent it. Tap on the "info" icon at the top of the screen, then find that number in the list. Tap on the ">" next to the number, then tap on "Block this caller". It used to be easier to block unwanted calls and texts, but an iOS update added this layer of complexity. After you block the caller, back out 'til you get to the main messages screen, where you can see the list of text threads, then you can find the thread with the spam message and swipe left on it to delete the whole thing. Depending on your carrier, they may have an app for your phone that will let you block calls and texts. T-Mobile (and now Sprint) uses one called T-Mobile Scam Guard. Sprint had a way to let you block things via their Web site; various redesigns have made it a PITA to find, but it was still there the last time I went hunting for it. [/QUOTE]
