    Microsoft PhoneLink doest not block scam SMS


    I got a scam SMS on my phone. Google Android marked it as a scam and I confirmed it was a scam. Microsoft Phonelink however just shows the sms without any warnings at all.Please adjust PhoneLink to also get the spam-status from Android.

    :)

    Blocked PhoneLink app

    Someone on this network used App Control Policies in a GPO to block the Appx PhoneLink app. I've removed that GPO and specifically allowed PhoneLink in the ACP/Appx Rules to be run by everyone. I've enforced both the Rule and the GPO, but users continue to get this:


    Microsoft PhoneLink doest not block scam SMS 6a86aa8a-8481-461e-9ff7-31d2cc5750a7?upload=true.png


    Any thoughts on how I fix this? I even set this policy as a top-level GPO and enforced it there. No change.

    Thanks...

    735 Windows Phone SMS Text not being blocked even though Call & SMS is on and number is in blocked call list

    I have a Microsoft 735 Windows phone and I have the Call & SMS turned on. I have blocked a number but the text are still coming in. When I look at the Call & SMS settings the number is in the blocked call list but it is not in the blocked sms list. I
    try to add it by tap and hold the text and tap block number and I get a message that the number is already blocked.

    Why am I still getting text messages if the number is blocked?
