This is usually my first reaction as well but then I stop and think it might be foolish to give them a reason to pay particular attention to me!

Click “Edit” (upper left corner). Click “Select messages” in the menu that opens. Click the circle to the left of the offending text. Click “Delete” (lower right corner).
With that procedure, the sender doesn’t see a “Read” response. A “Read” response encourages them to send more junk texts.

I go a phone recording(I don't answer the phone much) that they had a check for me from Publisher Clearing House!! I didn't respond, for that much money would likely just ruin my life!!

iPhone has an option is "Settings" to either enable or disable "Read" response.
If enabled, then the default is that anybody (everybody) who sends to you via iMessage, will receive the "Read" notification when you read the message.
If disabled, default is that nobody will receive the "Read" notification, but you can override the default for individuals on a case by case basis.
The text that I received was not an iMessage from an iPhone user, it was an SMS message from (presumably) an Android phone. The "Delivered" and "Read" status returns are only applicable between iPhone users.
