I have a list of phone numbers and I want to add them to one contact

Is there an easy way to do?

They are in a text file

If they are Google you can sign into Google on computer and import contact with file ..

But I have a text file of numbers I want added to one contact called spammers

Google import is for many contacts in a csv but it doesn't handle large lists of numbers

I do it to determine if they should be blocked
Or if they leave a message that identifies them as someone I want to talk to or a work unknown number etc for a co workers phone I don't recognize. I have unknown route to voicemail as contact one and another called spammers for likely spam callers

How about thus one for a head scratcher . On my old phone in google messages I had some texts from email addresses that I clicked block and it worked. But in the new phone I can't add alphanumeric to the block list only phone numbers I have to wait for the next email spam to text to re add to block.

I actually read this is a common problem thats its hard to block texts sent as emails but Verizon at the time of the atmrtucle had the best filter options

As far as exporting and reimporting my known spammer list I exported on old phone and reimbursed on new phone since google sync did not work lol

Double check the contacts setting for Samsung and drill into the menu to make sure you are not blocking contacts without numbers ..

Thats for not showing contacts without numbers on phone app I like that on. Don't think it relates to spam

Maybe bmnice thinking outside the box
But the input field for block should be alphabetic since you can texts from emails
