Facebook phishing scam on WhatsApp—stop the fake code now!
Summary — +19716786701
Expert Opinion
Surprisingly, the same spoofed Facebook login link shows up in dozens of WhatsApp messages from this number. Users report receiving an unexpected verification code, often a six‑digit number like 204405, with a fake verified badge and a link that leads to credential harvesting sites. This pattern matches classic phishing attacks that exploit the trust people have in social‑media platforms. Protect yourself by never clicking unknown links, especially those that claim to reset a password you didn’t request. Verify any Facebook communication through the official app or website, enable two‑factor authentication, and consider blocking the number to reduce future spam exposure.
