AOL emails

I am constantly getting AOL emails filtering thru my gmail account. I mark them as phishing and report them, i have blocked them etc. Why / How does gmail allow them to come thru? they all have my first name and then misc letters or numbers after and then @aol.com. they are never sent to my actual gmail account. but they get thru.

Ask google since you're using their mail account.
