Blocking all international numbers

Question

Is there are way to block all international numbers? Recently I started getting group spam text from international numbers. The senders immediately leave the group, which makes it difficult to block the numbers on an Iphone because once someone has left a group you have to manually input the numbers into your contacts and then block them. When there are a lot of numbers, this gets annoying. Hence, this is the method that spammers are now using. Can I block all international numbers or all numbers from a certain country code? I have the app and I'm only seeing an option to block specific US neighborhoods, not specific countries.

I'd try a 3rd party anti-spam or call filtering app.

TheDoorMagda40, spam messages are definitely not fun and we're sorry you've been having problems with them. We don't have a way to block incoming international text messages. If you're getting spam messages or group messages, we recommend reporting the group or text as spam. This varies based on the app you're using. For Google Message, you can follow the steps found here: http://spr.ly/6603f0YEX For iMessage you can follow the steps here: http://spr.ly/6604f0YEk
