Expert Opinion

It’s odd how a simple four‑digit code can spark a cascade of doubt. Many users report receiving unsolicited Uber‑style texts or calls from +12029671856, often at odd hours, claiming to verify a ride that never existed. If you didn’t request a ride, don’t share the code and block the number. Verify any driver details directly in the official Uber app, not through texts. Consider reporting the number to your carrier and to Uber’s fraud team. Keep a log of suspicious messages, and enable two‑factor authentication on all accounts to limit exposure.
