Is it possible to block certain Bluetooth objects?

Everytime for the last couple of days when I use my Bluetooth for listening to music I get spammed by another user. I have to deny the connection the whole time and that makes the mobile hard to use. (it could be a neighbour's kid home for the summer, or it can be someone trying to hack into my mobile.) 

Is there any way to block that specifik user so that I can use my speakers outside in the garden?

Thanks in advance.

You did make connections to friendly devices.

So when you don't need other connections maybe it is an option to switch off Bluetooth scanning.

Share with us if that is an option for you.

No. If I do then the music stops playing from the speaker. Some of them it works to do that but not this one...

Start with unpairing your speaker, then pair it again. This should change the connections key and cut off the intruder. If this does not work you can edit the protocols of the pairing with your speaker in the options. Disallow everything but media audio.

If all these methods fail bluetooth or your xz3 is hacked by this person. Tell the police since this is illegal.
