spam messages

[rdi1973]

i have a Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus & i keep getting messages from PsyToday, for some reason it doesn't allow me to block number, usually there are 3 little dots in the top right hand corner of the screen but not with these messages,

the messages tell me if i want to stop recieving them to ring a number 03333350297 but i don't trust it, anyone have any ideas?

Hi @rdi1973 

Follow this advice.

Edited to add, that number is for 'calling a psychic'. Obviously will cost if you call it.

If you long press on the message from your message list, do you get a menu pop up with an option to block or mark as spam?

You're welcome @rdi1973 

03 numbers are included in your allowances so you won't be charged for calling their customer service line.
