Expert Opinion

Never pick up a verification‑code call from a number you don't recognize. These automated messages often deliver a six‑digit code that scammers use to hijack WhatsApp accounts, and the caller ID may appear as a UK landline like +44 161 696 1154. Block the number on your device and report it as spam to your carrier. If you need a code, request it through the app’s built‑in SMS option or use a trusted phone number you control. Enable two‑factor authentication and regularly review active sessions in WhatsApp settings. Staying vigilant and refusing unknown verification calls keeps your account safe.

Fick ett SMS om att WhatsApp registreras på ny enhet, bara minuter innan detta nummer ringde. Valde att inte svara eftersom jag misstänkte scam för att sno SMS-koden och ta över kontot – smart att vara försiktig!
