Is there a way I can block random people (bots, spam, phishing) from sending me things in Google Drive? I "report and block" as they come in, but can I prevent it?

It's been a thing this week and I'd like it to stop.

@Evereigh

You can set up a filter to filter out the main Google drive link from your feeds. Just use the main URL as the filter text.

@misterfive No, not here. They keep showing up in my Email and Google Drive.

@misterfive It is. It's better than the Sex Bots I'd get, adding things to my Google calendar though...lol That was a thing a handful of years ago. I've had my email a LONG time...so...it's been exposed a lot. lol :(

@Evereigh

I assume you have scoured the setting options pretty thoroughly.

@misterfive Yeah. I think all I can do is report and block as they come in. *sigh* Oh well.

@Evereigh

I've looked for a way, but only found that I can block them as they show up. Let me know if you find anything more comprehensive, such as disabling GDrive entirely :)
