WhatsApp Hacking

7 Feb 2024

WhatsApp hacking/scams are escalating across Nottinghamshire, regionally and nationally. Just imagine handing over your account to a stranger so that they can go through all your conversations, scam your friends/family out of money and try hacking their accounts too. Please speak to friends and family to warn them and share these 3 tips to help protect WhatsApp accounts.

1- Never share any codes received no matter what their excuse is. 2-step verification codes approve a login attempt, these are the keys to your account so don’t share them with anyone else.

2- Enable 2-step Verification: – Tap settings > Account > Two- step verification – Create a Pin. That’s it, just don’t share it.

3- Protect your data: Allow only your contacts to see your profile data (not everyone).

Tap settings > Account > Privacy > update all settings listed to ‘nobody’ OR ‘contacts only.

– At the bottom of the list is ‘advanced’ > hide IP address in calls.

– Screen lock > enable FaceID or Fingerprint.
