People transfer money based on WhatsApp messages from acquaintances, without at least a phone call confirmation?

Seriously, even for good friends and family, I'd expect a phone call when asked for money, not a message. It's basically a matter of respect.

People really rely on whatsapp here. Phone calls are becoming rare.

Also the messages implies that is not really a lending, just to pay someone else and the money will be transferred soon enough.
