Check unknown Nigerian numbers with recent reports (Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano) and share your experience.
Unsure about a Nigerian number? Explore concise community notes to judge calls and texts. In Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt and Kano you’ll see legitimate callbacks (deliveries, banking, appointments) as well as waves of robocalls or phishing. Mobile 080/081/070/090 ranges and 01 (Lagos) legacy fixed ranges provide context but are not proof of origin due to portability and VoIP — treat them as hints, not evidence.
Verification: return calls via the official number on the company website/app, check in‑app notices and never share one‑time codes by phone. Use device/carrier blocking for repeat issues and leave a short, factual note here so others benefit.
