Expert Opinion
Watch out for unexpected calls from this number; they often masquerade as verification messages. Many users report missed calls and voicemail prompts that claim to need a WhatsApp verification code or other personal data to unlock an account. These are typical phishing tactics that aim to steal credentials or install malware. Do not share any codes, passwords, or financial information with the caller. Hang up, block the number, and verify any legitimate requests directly through the official app or service. Report the incident to your carrier and, if needed, to local consumer‑protection agencies.

Following a series of suspicious events on Nov 5, 2017, it appears my phone was targeted by a potential hacker. At 1:15 am PST, a text message was received containing a WhatsApp code, immediately followed by a call from the same number in Lawrence, KS, which repeated an automated phrase multiple times before hanging up. The experience was unsettling, reminiscent of sci-fi movie plots. Interestingly, the text mentioned WhatsApp, an app I no longer have installed.
