Expert Opinion
Block this number immediately to halt further contact. Such SMS scams impersonating family members exploit trust and emotions, often leading to demands for money or personal details via platforms like WhatsApp. Report the incident to your mobile provider and Action Fraud without delay. Enable spam filters on your phone to detect similar tricks. Never respond or share information, even if the message tugs at your heartstrings—verify directly with the person claimed. Stay vigilant against these phishing attempts, which are increasingly common in the UK, and consider using apps that flag suspicious texts for added protection.
