Expert Opinion

People are getting calls from +1‑650‑285‑1001 that sound like a robotic voice reading a four‑digit code. That’s the number Facebook uses for its automated verification feature – when you click “call me” for a login code or page‑setup code. If you never asked for a code, it’s usually a typo or someone else’s account using your number. The safest move is to ignore the call, don’t share any info, and double‑check your Facebook security settings. If the calls keep coming, block the number or report it as spam in your phone app. You can also enable two‑factor authentication via the authenticator app to avoid phone‑based codes.
