Expert Opinion
Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, this number's casual texts are designed to lure you into engagement before revealing their true scam intentions. Comments consistently describe unsolicited messages with phrases such as 'Hello, are you busy?' or 'Do you have a sec to catch up?', flagged as dangerous or harassing by multiple recipients. These are classic scam tactics to build rapport and extract personal details or money. Block the number immediately, report it to your network provider and Action Fraud, and never reply to unknown contacts—doing so confirms your number is active. Stay vigilant; if in doubt, hang up or ignore.
