    All the message means is that whoever it is is using a business account.

    https://faq.whatsapp.com/64346092728323

    "You’ll see the following messages, when a business chooses to:

    Use a partner: You’ll see “This business works with other companies to manage this chat.”

    Use the WhatsApp Business Platform Cloud API (Hosted by Meta): You’ll see “This business uses a secure service from Meta to manage this chat.”

    If a business is using the WhatsApp Business app or managing and storing customer messages themselves, you’ll see: “Messages and calls are end-to-encrypted. Only people in this chat can read, listen to, or share them.”"

    So, hypothetically, if I were running a scam, yeah, I’d set up a business account using the Platform Cloud API to get that sweet, sweet “secure service” note.
