Expert Opinion

Ever wondered why a late‑night ring from +12056390253 sounds like an automated voice reading a verification code? The number is linked to Twitter’s account‑recovery system, which sometimes places a voice call instead of an SMS. While the call is generally legitimate, scammers can mimic it, so always check the caller ID and compare it with the official Twitter support number. If you did not request a code, let the call go to voicemail and block the number. Never share personal details, and consider switching to SMS verification in your account settings for added safety.
