People have insights into what is bothering them, but they hardly do a damn thing to change. If this is the same thing happening to you while using your iMessages, then I really tell you to keep yourself away from being bothered. Keeping yourself away doesn’t suggest you to stop using iMessages service, but rather suggests you to Block Someone on iMessage , the one who bothering or disturbing you. If someone is annoying you, disturbing you, or it’s an unknown one bothering you, and then block them out . It’s very simple now with Apple’s concrete changes to iOS’s ability to block. With this, you can block unknown contacts and contacts in the list, from whom you don’t want to receive iMessages. But, this feature is available to users of iOS 7 and iOS 8. In iOS 6, the users couldn’t block a person that was really bad and rather it include the feature to disable iMessages which was the ugliest solution.
Blocking someone on your iPhone effectively blocks them from even being able to call you or text you (regular SMS/MMS). For our reason, we assume that this is the use-case.
Here in the below you will learn how to block text messages on iPhone the person from whom you don’t want to receive messages. Once you block the person he/she cannot contact you any means neither by call or messages.

You’ll notice that the contact you have selected is now added to your Blocked list. This contact won’t be able to text you, call you or send an iMessage to you. Moreover, FaceTime will be also blocked for this person.
There are times when you get annoyed when you receive repeated messages from unknown contacts. If you don’t want to receive such unwanted messages, you can block unknown numbers so that they won’t be able to send you iMessages further. The below will tell you what to do with it.
That’s all! And now you don’t have to worry much. The disturbing elements are out of your life. You won’t receive any iMessages, phone calls and even Face Time further from this unknown number.
When someone unknown sends you an iMessage you can stop getting notifications. Without missing other message notifications. This process involves two steps:
At first remove the contact from your phone or address book.
Go to Settings → Notifications → Messages → scroll down and select Show Alerts from My Contacts.
This way, you won’t get notifications for iMessages sent from numbers not in your contacts, unknown numbers. But they won’t block.
If you are thinking of removing the contact itself and blocking the number, then that’s not possible at least, not till now. Unless you call up your carrier and report them to block a number. You could also login into your account on your carrier’s web portal and add the number to the blacklist or reject-list. It would take a bit time for the changes to take effect.
