This number appeared on a Google Verification request.  I have two step authentication requirement. I was not trying to log in!!  Will report to Google!!

Tried to get into my google account number came up on 2 step verification

Received a text from this phone number at 8:28 pm, with the message of "G-xxxxxx is your Google verification code." I'm not trying to log into Google, and I've never needed a "verification code" anyway. Smells like a scam to me.

People try to set up Google accounts with telephone-numbers-that-are-not-theirs, hoping that Google will just let them have the account without sending a text. Very annoying. Might be kids.

Most scammers and spammers just use burner phones to get the texted verification code.

This is a more sophisticated scam used on people who already have Google accounts :

Received a text from this # after trying to log in with 2 step verification code.  Didn't trust it and didn't log in.
