How are you handling the FluBot? - sarahk - 06-11-2021

I'm getting tons of text messages because NZ Android users have been caught out by the FluBot. 

Has anyone got a successful way of dealing with these?

Here's what I'm trying...

I noticed that the same phone numbers were sending me messages so I created a contacted called "SMS Spam" and I've blocked that contact. 

Every time I get a new sender I send them a link to https://news.vodafone.co.nz/flubot and then add their number to the SMS contact - as if a person had a huge number of numbers.

Has it worked?

If you're still having trouble with this perhaps post again in the computer section.
