this is someone who started texting me. it is probably a scam.

I received a text from this number that said:

(The best part of me is cooveered up., text ME)

Gotta be a scam

this number texted my 10 yr old daughters phone asking for a date and is leaving perverted messages.Warning pedophiles! Disgusting!

Yeah, definitely a sex-worker spammer. It texted me with a perverted message too.

For a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.

For text messages: forwarding any text message spam you get to the short code  “7726,” which spells “spam” on most phones, to alert your network operator to the abuse. ATT won't accept 7726 But they will accept BLOCK and return a message that the web site is blocked. forward the texts to 7726 or BLOCK, depending on your phone carrier.
