What they did is also illegal!
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 tracfone & straight talk:

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.
