Multiple reports highlight unsolicited WhatsApp messages from this number posing as Facebook verification codes for account resets. Victims describe receiving unrequested 2FA prompts, often tied to phishing attempts or unauthorized login tries, with some noting a 'verified' badge on the scammer's profile to build false trust. Patterns suggest coordinated efforts to hijack accounts, potentially leading to further spam or data theft. Block immediately and report to WhatsApp/Facebook support. Enable two-factor authentication on your own devices, avoid clicking suspicious links, and monitor accounts for unusual activity to safeguard against escalation.

Phishing attempt – definitely a scam, don't give any details.
Received Facebook verification codes I never asked for, looks like phishing, wow
The call felt rather unserious and unprofessional.
The caller sounded unserious and untrustworthy – definitely not reliable.
Multiple verification codes were sent via WhatsApp so I could access Facebook. The profile displays a verified badge.
My goal is to grab this bloke and give him a proper thrashing. Wreck his PC and all his comms gear, then ensure he's barred for life from touching any tech like that.
Impersonating Facebook support and sending counterfeit 2FA codes to force a password reset.
Got a Facebook security code I didn't ask for, looks like phishing, yikes.
NEGATIVE. I noticed this number after my Twitter account had an unauthorised password change. While trying to reset my passwords, I received a verification code from this number related to my Facebook account. Be cautious—this is a scam!
A threatening message was received, targeting my home.
Me están enviando códigos de verificación de Facebook como spam.
