Expert Opinion

Late last night, callers using +1‑860‑724‑2443 have been surfacing in multiple complaints about unsolicited WhatsApp verification texts followed by repeated phone calls. The pattern points to a scam that harvests active numbers to flood users with fake codes. If you receive a verification code you didn’t request, don’t click any links and delete the message. Block the number on your device, add it to the national Do‑Not‑Call registry, and report the activity to the FTC or your carrier’s fraud department. Stay cautious with any unexpected verification code requests, and regularly review your account security settings to limit exposure.
