Expert Opinion

Repeatedly, users report midnight calls that claim to need a WhatsApp verification code or to “activate” an account. The calls often drop an automated message in a foreign language, then hang up, creating anxiety about a hacked account. This pattern matches a known WhatsApp phishing tactic where scammers hope the recipient will share the code to gain control of the chat app. To stay safe, ignore unsolicited verification requests, never share codes, and block the number in your phone. Report the number to your carrier and to WhatsApp via the in‑app support. If messages keep coming, consider enabling call‑screening or a third‑party spam blocker.
