The other day, my mother asked how she can block text message spam. At first, I didn’t know, my main reaction was to call her cell phone provider and have her cancel all text messages. She doesn’t text, doesn’t know how, and doesn’t want to learn. One thing she doesn’t want to do is pay for them!

High level answers:

Turn it off completely
Create an alias

So, after some research, here’s the best article I’ve found so far to block text spam.
