Daily, innocent people's WhatsApp accounts are being hacked or let's say being hijacked frequently
So if you are a WhatsApp account owner, please pay attention to these simple tips and protect your WhatsApp account and all other properties associated with it
It's mostly the same trick scammers use in hijacking 90% of people's Facebook accounts, as well as WhatsApp accounts, so whenever you come across such people, please don't pay attention to them. Best blocked them
Don't Fall For Those Scammers, PROTECTION YOUR WHATSAPP ACCOUNT BY NOT SENDING ANY CODE TO ANYONE, OR CALLING OUT THE Code when they call you on the phone
DO NOT RESPOND TO ANY MESSAGE, SMS, OR CALL INFORMING YOU OF ANY MEETING, ASKING YOU TO SEND A CODE OR CLICK A LINK. It is 100% fake and steps to hijack your WhatsApp account
Most time when someone's account e.g Whatsapp, Facebook, etc is said to be hacked, as I said earlier 90% of it, is the fault of the account users. And here is why
They normally request for password reset, which will prompt Facebook or WhatsApp to send a code to you, not to the scammer, the code normally comes to your phone number or email address associated with the account
This scammer knows too well they have requested for account reset and will contact you with fake stories, asking you to send the code to them or call it out. Please Don't pay Attention To Them. BLOCK THEM Off
Most time, they come up with fake promises that you have won this and that but to claim it, you need to call out the code to them. All Fake, sometimes they will lie to you that a code was sent to you and that u should send the code back to them to Comfarm and claim your fake price
Should you make the mistake of sending such a code, sorry you have given them full access to your Whatsapp account, and once they have access
First, they will log your device off, and hijack your WhatsApp account for their fraudulent activities. So best practice is never to fall for their trick, and don't send any code or call it out to anyone asking you to do so.
