Help with blocking spam messages

[RetNavy]

Good day all and Happy Holidays,

I have an issue I could use some help on. How do I block spam messages on my Samsung Note 3? I found this fix on the internet HOWEVER my note 3 does not have the option for "Add to spam numbers" as the instructions below show. My build is MJE? what gives????

Press the "Menu" button
Tap "Settings"
If necessary, mark the "Spam settings" check box
Tap "Add to spam numbers"
Press the "+" icon to add a number
Type the number or tap the "Contacts" icon and select the number from the contacts list
Once finished, tap "Save"
