Unknown calls in the UAE
Unsure about a UAE number? Explore concise community notes to judge calls and texts. In Abu Dhabi (02), Dubai (04) and Sharjah (06) you’ll see both legitimate callbacks (deliveries, banking, appointments) and waves of robocalls or phishing. Mobile 05x ranges and 800 toll‑free provide context but are not proof of origin due to portability and VoIP.
Verification: return calls via the official number on the company website/app, check in‑app notices and never share one‑time codes. Use device/carrier blocking for repeats and leave a short, factual note here to help others.
