🚨 Scam of the Day

WhatsApp Impersonation

CRITICAL RISKIdentity Fraud

A scammer pretends to be your boss, family member, or bank — new number, same name, urgent request. Always verify on the original number.

Example message Flagged
Hi it's me, new number 📱
unknown sender · just now
Lost my old phone. Quick favour — can you pay this invoice for me today? I'll send you back tonight. Don't call, I'm in a meeting.
