The text message received is clearly a scam
WhatsApp‑only requests: red flag for scams!
Summary — +16179360511
Expert Opinion
Watch out: calls from this number often turn out to be scams aimed at real‑estate agents who are asked to move the conversation to WhatsApp. The script typically mentions a relocation to cities like Austin, Miami, or Weston and pretends to be a fellow agent named Daniel or Danny. Never share personal or professional details through unofficial messaging apps, and verify any request by contacting the purported party through known channels. Block the number, report it to the FTC and your phone carrier, and educate colleagues about the WhatsApp‑only red flag. Staying skeptical protects your reputation and data.

The message I received was identical to the one mentioned earlier, which I found quite puzzling.
A scammer contacted me, claiming to need assistance with a real estate matter in Weston and suggesting communication via WhatsApp. However, they failed to provide their own name while being aware of mine, leading me to block the number.
A call from someone claiming to be Danny, inquiring about real estate services in Miami, seemed fraudulent.
I recieved the same message, and they only want to comunicate throught WhatApp.
The caller claimed to be planning a move to Austin and requested communication via whatsapp, but was unwilling to engage in a phone conversation
