Just that really..... guy from online dating site has given me this as his number. Don't understand what this is and Google not helping!

I'd say that's not a real number.

Ok so I stupidly text this person back. If he's a scammer what damage could they do having my mobile number?

Maybe, but not necessarily. My mobile number ends 1111 (Really. I got it with my first ever mobile in the mid 90s and have hung onto it for dear life)

What are the chances.... I'd hang onto that too! Hmm well slight chance it's a genuine number then but knowing my luck...

If you have any suspicions about anyone on a dating site you should be able to email the site admin just to confirm that the person is legit. Which dating site are you using? I personally stick with sites that have an active admin and respond to emails.
