AI Summary
Based on 1 community report
This EE mobile number contacted someone claiming to have a job opportunity, then asked them to continue the conversation on WhatsApp. While there's only a single report with no community consensus yet, this is a common recruitment scam tactic. Scammers use job offers to build false trust before asking for personal details, money for "training fees," or banking information.
Legitimate employers rarely recruit via unsolicited calls and don't ask you to move conversations to WhatsApp to discuss positions. If you receive similar calls, ask for the company name and contact details, then verify independently using official websites. Be cautious about sharing personal information or financial details with unknown callers claiming to offer work.

Important limits
Caller ID can be spoofed, so a high risk rating means people have reported suspicious activity involving this displayed number. It does not prove that the registered owner of the number made the call or text. Community reports describe individual experiences and are not official confirmation of a scam.

Safety score
1 reportHow this score was worked out
Each report rates the number as safe, unknown, suspicious or spam. The score blends those ratings, giving more weight to the more serious ones, and a number with only a few reports is held closer to neutral until more arrive. Feedback votes on reports can also influence it slightly. Scores of 70% and above count as high risk, 40% to 69% as medium, and below 40% as low. More about spam scores
