I've never once had this issue while I get normal SMS spam. My grandpa and wife get them though. Still trying to figure out why. I'm about to make the switch to Molly as I read you can allow messages only from an approved list of senders or something along those lines. Molly is a fork of Signal FYI, and you'll need their fdroid repo to download or get it from github
