Inundated with voicemail text spam

Hi folks I'm getting between 1 and 5 of these texts which contain links. They look like a voicemail text at a glance but you know pretty quickly they are spam as they come from mobile numbers. Since I started reporting them to 7726 though I'm getting more. All from different numbers. Any other ideas to stop them. Blocking makes no difference as there are multiple numbers.

Hi @nadiakhan230 - While this may fix the issue with spam texts and calls, we can't assure this. I'd advise trying the previous advice given in the thread and dropping us a message on social media. Make sure to include your mobile/account number, your forum username and a link back to this thread to save you repeating yourself.

We can certainly look into changing your number @asadkhan890. As we'll need access to your account to do this, please pop us a private message through our social channels and we'll be happy to help.

Truly pleasant conundrum, I loved and whenever I first got a trick instant message saying I had an unopened voice message to pay attention to, I was frightened for two reasons: right off the bat since I could do without voice messages (simply message me); besides — after I understood it was dodgy — how could the trick message come through from an apparently typical number?enjoyed it.
