Good morning, I'm OFW  and I have bank accounts in Philippines registered to a mobile number. This mobile number is with me. I received sms message from this  philippine number +639098656169 tonight. 
I'm very much worried because this person knew my name and he/she even send me a link if I want to have 20k php. I know it is a scam. I've already block this phone number. But if you can block permanently this mobile number so he/ she/they can't  deceive other people. 
Hoping for your prompt response.
