Most smartphones today come with built-in spam blocking features. However, the increasing sophistication of spammers makes default features less effective. Zenfone users can employ Laban SMS, similar to how Samsung users block Samsung spam messages.

2. Enter information to block
After setting up blocking rules, you'll need to enter information. If using phone number blocking, input the phone number; if using keyword blocking, input the keyword. For example, if you often receive spam messages about beautiful SIM cards, you can choose keyword blocking and enter the keyword 'Sim so dep' then press OK.
Confirm the filter... press OK again.
Additionally, you can block messages from specific phone numbers. While not as universal as the previous method, it is quite effective. The numbers you block won't be able to send spam messages to you anymore. Also, consider checking out the guide on blocking Facebook messages to prevent unwanted messages in groups or from specific members. Good luck with your successful implementation!
