I have verified everything written below. Hence, you can trust them without thinking twice.

If you block someone on Telegram, they may or may not see your phone number. It depends on your Telegram privacy settings. If the other person has your number in their contact list, he/she will see your phone number on the Telegram app.
However, if they haven’t saved your contact on their device. Go to Telegram settings > Privacy and Security > Phone number and choose My contacts or Nobody option to hide your phone number from strangers.

If you block someone on Telegram, the chat will not be deleted on either side. If you want to delete the chat, press and hold onto the chat, select the Delete icon on the top, check the “Also delete for [person name]” box, and tap Delete chat.
The chat will be removed on both sides.

If you block someone on Telegram, they won’t be notified. But your profile picture will hide, and the last seen will change to “last seen a long time ago”.

Hi
Thank you for this useful article and for making it so simple to understand
I do have 3 questions that it doesn’t cover, if you are able to answer them for me, please
1) If I block someone on Telegram & mark them as spam, what happens (if marking them as spam, as well as blocking them)? my other questions below relating to this same scenario:
2) How do I find them on Telegram and any chats accidently sent to them, not realizing they were sending it me from a private message rather than in a Telegram group they initially found me from?
3) how do I find their contact number to block them on my device?
thanks in advance
