Verify any unsolicited notifications before responding. This scenario suggests a potential phishing tactic, where fake missed call alerts lure you into replying, possibly leading to charges or data harvesting. Block the number immediately and avoid engaging with unknown texts, especially early mornings. Enable spam filters on your phone to catch these. If suspicious, report to your carrier or authorities like the FCC. Stay vigilant—legitimate callers don't use deceptive texts to initiate contact.
