Most SMS apps have an option to report spam and SMS fishing. I think such a functionality could be added to AirMessage in the form of a context option to report the sender of a message. See the following idea on a potentially simple method of implementation.

Selecting the suggested "Report Phishing" option in AirMessage could open a new message thread window and auto-populate the recipient as "7726" (The FTC's official SMS number for reporting fraud) . The messages body could also be auto-populated with the fraudulent sender's SMS number and a default message indicating the intention to report said number.
At that point the AirMessage user is left with a new thread, a pre-typed message, and the recipient as 7726. They then can then decide to send, make additional edits , or just close without sending like any other new message being drafted in the app.
