WordPress – WhatsApp hyperlink not working as expected

I am using the "https://wa.me/1XXXXXXXXXX" on my footer WhatsApp icon. But clicking the link, takes me to the "This link is incorrect. Close this window and try a different link.
" page.

Can anyone please help to overcome this issue?

I checked WhatsApp’s guidance on this: https://faq.whatsapp.com/5913398998672934. I am facing the same issue on the web and mobile.

    Add this simple HTML to your website:

    1. With WhatsApp Logo:

    <a href="https://api.whatsapp.com/send/?phone=123456789000&text=Hi+%21+how+can+I+help+you%3F&type=phone_number&app_absent=0" target="_blank"><img src="https://i.imgur.com/MoFGGKV.png" alt="Whatsapp Link" style="width:42px;height:42px;"></a>

    2. With WhatsApp Text

    <a href="https://api.whatsapp.com/send/?phone=123456789000&text=Hi+%21+how+can+I+help+you%3F&type=phone_number&app_absent=0" target="_blank">Whatsapp</a>

    Do not use + before your number. Just start with your country code and replace your business number with 123456789000.
