Got a WhatsApp verification code via SMS that I never requested. Probably just spam trying to trick me into confirming a number.

Expert Opinion
Clearly, these calls are not legitimate WhatsApp verification attempts. The pattern—repeated robotic messages, an urgent request for a code, and callers claiming to be from Ohio or using a recorded voice—matches known verification‑code scams. Victims often receive the call when they don’t even use WhatsApp, confirming it’s a social‑engineering ploy to harvest personal data. Block the number, never share OTPs, and report the incident to your carrier and to WhatsApp via the in‑app support. If you receive a surprise code, ignore it and review your account security settings. Consider enabling two‑step verification and using a call‑blocking app for extra safety.
