Firstly, what do we mean by "blocking" a number? Blocking a number simply means that you will be unable to receive a message, or call, from that number until you unblock it. On Android, the process of blocking a number means adding it to your “reject list”.
Please note that just because you block a number, the owner of that number could still contact you if they have other contact details of yours (such as your email address).
