Help - multiple messages on phone .Spam?
I'm receiving 6 or more messages every day starting "Hi, I hope you're in good health, and thanks for using Repair System Android".does anyone know if this is genuine? I'm worried it may be a scam, because I can't believe anyone would be so persistent. It invites me to complete a survey. How can I stop this please?

If always from the same number, add it as a contact, then block it.

Forward the messages to 7726
Use the four numbers that can beat spam texts. The first option is to report it to your network provider. The big networks have a simple, FREE method to help you do this. Just forward the message to 7726 (spells SPAM), making sure it includes the senders' number.

For a start, block the number.
Did you recently register a domain name? It happens a lot when I did that, so I started adding another number. They get it from Whois.

Thanks for the advice. No, I don't have a new domain name. I'll try the 7726 method. Many thanks for all contributions. Happy to receive more ideas if you have any.
