Spam messages (again!)

There was a thread last month on this subject, which resulted in successful solutions being provided - however, that was for Turkcell....
I am "on" Telsim, and every day I receive a (Turkish) text from the sender "6000" - I neither know nor care what it is about, and it does not appear to diminish my credit... but does anyone know how it could be blocked?
Thanks in advance...

Yes go to the text, then do to options and press "Block this Caller"

Unfortunately, I don't get that option - 'reply, chat, details, erase,' and one or two others - but no 'Block this caller' - there is also no indication of any 'stop text messages' number or option....

I've been getting the 6000 messages for a couple of years. They are actually a daily quiz, and if you win, you get extra phone units, but no use if you can't read Turkish. Neither can I block them, so I just delete daily.

Thanks for that!
Now that is an incentive to learn Turkish!
(Or like you, delete daily...)
