Blocking caller in imessage doesn't work because as soon as you open the message, they will send more messages under different numbers. Is there another way to BLOCK SPAM MESSAGES? My imessage is blowing up and it's very time-consuming. I've deleted without opening, I've blocked them, I've replied STOP--it only perpetuates more messages. Also if i delete on my iphone without opening the message--it still exists on my macbook imessages and the only way to delete the conversation is to open it first. Once they see it's been read they just send more. Surely Apple can figure out how to block bot numbers?
