Hey there

Yes you can.

Go to your message list, press down on the text you want to block to highlight it.

Top right, click on 3 dots and select block.

It won't stop the text coming in, it will pop it into your spam folder in messages.

With One UI 6 on Samsung Messages,  select More at Botton of screen and choose Block.  Pin to top is the other option.

I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.

There needs to be a way to not have blocked texrs stored. I don't want to see them. This is making me want to leave samsung because I am getting texts from an ex partner and I don't want to be able to look.

Does not work in case where "text messages that don't provide a number" as was mentioned... I have just get froud message where sender name is NETFLIX but from urls in text is obvious that it is not netflix at all... but I don't have any option to block it as it is anonymous sms which is very very sad... I would expect there is some setting where you can block all anonymous text messages.. if someone wants to message me then it must not be anonymously. But unfortunatelly I haven't found such option.
