yes. nowadays e-summons are issued without any physical seal or physical signature. but it does not means that the summon would not be signed. it must be certified with a e-signature or digital signature and you can also verify the summon through e-court app by searching for the case details

This might be a fraud. The court ensures sending a notice for appearance by either registered post or email. Whatsapp service may be attempted if the other 2 options didn’t work. But the notice shall always come with the seal of court. There would be a case number and the case may be tracked using the e-courts services and the order can be verified. The court always passes an order to direct such service.
