Good luck getting them blocked!  I have over the last two weeks been trying to get Verizon to do something.  I have talked to Christina, Donna, Jason and Stacy.  Two of them from the Advanced Tech Support and no one can do anything.  I told them that some of these numbers receiving this garbage could belong to children.  The last person said I would have to block all text messages or change my number.  They have to allow this "garbage" because it is freedom of speech!!!  That is what she said!  She said it would have to be changed at the FCC which I did call and they passed it to the FTC because it is coming from an internet address!  The FTC said they can only take the email addresses and pass the complaint on to their lawyers who will decide if there is a case!  No one is doing anything about it.  I have emailed each of the local news stations hoping to get help from them.  What's next?  A class action lawsuit!?!

the 7726 does not work because there is no number!!  Will not work with email address.  I have been trying to get this resolved with Verizon advanced Tech Support and today they said I would have to block all text messages or change my number.  There is nothing they can do.  The last tech support actually said it is freedom of speech!!  How many of the numbers in the group details belong to children?!  I have called the FCC and they said because it is an email I needed to contact FTC.  I called FTC and they could only take the email address and will let their lawyers know.  They will decide if there is a case.  What the ?!?!  I have sent emails to every local news TV station consumer help hoping to hear back so someone can help us.  I think it may come down to a class action lawsuit.
