You got a message from someone interested in buying your item on Facebook Marketplace. Or someone claims they found your lost pet. Or a new match on a dating app wants to verify you are real before meeting up. They seem genuine, friendly, and harmless until they ask for one thing: a Google Voice verification code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is where it starts. And by the time most people realise what has happened, their phone number has been hijacked, their identity compromised, and the scammer has moved on to the next victim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This article explains what a Google Voice phone number is, how to get one legitimately, and most importantly, how to spot the scam that is catching thousands of people off guard every year. If someone has already sent you a verification code request, run their details through Social Catfish<\/a> before you do anything else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
