I get minumally 20 texts a day around 5-10 calls a day. I now don't answer the phone unless it's a 010 number.

Anyone know a good system to fix it?

There are apps that will auto reject telemarketer calls/collections that work for US numbers, no idea if those apps would work here in SK.

If your phone has the function, you can block certain numbers and texts.

Otherwise, probably need to change your number. I used to get daily texts, but they just stopped fro some reason. Now I get one or two a month.

I have an iPhone. Do you know the name of the apps?

Every time you get a spam message, open it and select "spam number" before deleting it. If you happen to pick up to a spam call, just say "(이 번호를) 전화 하지마세요" ((ee- beon-ho- reul) cheon-hwah- ha-ji-mah-sey-yo) (please don't call (this number)).

I don't get too many spam messages since I delete them all and categorize those numbers as spam *knocks on wood* so maybe it will help you, too?

Good luck!
