Can't delete a spam imessage

I received a spam message. When I swipe to the left it won't delete. I have tried going in to the actually message as well as tried to restart my phone. Nothing works. I'm able to delete other messages just not that one. Is anyone else having this issue? If so, how did you resolve it if you were able to?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 16

Use Messages in iCloud:

Can't delete messages? If so, use Messages in iCloud. You'd enable messages on your other devices. Once it is deleted, all will be removed.


Associating Messages in iCloud to your Devices:

  1. Go Here: Use Messages in iCloud - Apple Support
  2. As it Reads: "When you delete a message, photo, or conversation on one device, it’s removed from all of your devices."
