How do you block spam text messages from a cell phone?

Different cell phone carriers have different methods of blocking unwanted texts or phone calls; Metro PCS has Metro Block for $1 a month and Verizon has a free feature called Block Calls and Messages. The owner of the cell phone will have to contact their cell phone carrier and sign up for the service wanted.

Every cell phone carrier has a method of protecting the customer from unwanted calls and text messages. Any cell phone customer can forward the text to the number 7726; doing this will notify the cell phone carrier that this is a number that sends out spam text messages and will take the appropriate action to prevent spam in the future.
