Reports indicate a pattern of unsolicited automated calls from this number, primarily requesting addition to WhatsApp for further discussion without prior context. Such tactics align with common scam operations in the telecom sector, where fraudsters exploit messaging apps to bypass direct call restrictions. No legitimate entities typically initiate contact this way, especially without leaving a voicemail. Recipients frequently block these numbers on first encounter, minimising exposure. To protect against similar incidents, enable call screening features on your device and report to authorities like Action Fraud. Avoid engaging or sharing personal details, as this could escalate to phishing attempts.
