Note: Blocking messages from someone's profile is different from blocking them on Facebook. If you block messages from a profile, but you don't block it on Facebook, you'll still be able to see that Facebook profile. Depending on their privacy settings, you may also be able to see things like their status updates, comments, likes and tags on Facebook. Learn more about blocking profiles on Facebook.
