Blocking and reporting as spam does nothing when every new message is from a different sender. Trust me I follow all of the tips you mentioned. I don’t just put my number anywhere I even have a google voice set up for anything that isn’t friends or family . Even my doctors office gets routed to google voice. I truly hope you won’t ever see for yourself what I’m talking about. This problem is getting bigger by the day. It’s become a multi billion dollar industry. Scamming people.

It's the thing iOS fans dont want to accept. Android users get just as many spam messages sent to our phone numbers, but Google spam filtering is a lot better.

My wife's iphone from work is plagued with these messages. Neither of our personal Androids EVER see this garbage.

iPhone users are used to hearing about iMessage being the gold standard, but it's slipping. Apple likes breaking standards, because it makes OTHER products look inferior when they "don't just work" with iPhones. That means iOS users are going to increasingly pay more for "adequate".
