How to protect your whatsapp from hacking
First of all you have to download whatsapp for android mobile only from play store and don’t download it anywhere else.
Then you have to check the option of Play Protect in your Play Store, although it is already on, if it is not on, then you go and turn it on. If you don’t know about it let me tell you
- First of all you have to open your play store.
- Then click on the icon of the profile on the top right side.
- Then click on the option of play protect and turn it on
Do not reply to messages received from unknown numbers on WhatsApp. If he asks you for any kind of information, do not tell him anything.
Hacker can also ask you for OTP of your mobile number but you do not have to tell him anything.You have to keep your profile private in your WhatsApp and also keep your resume private.
Do not use any other application to download status for your WhatsApp. And once you go to the setting of your WhatsApp, open the link device and check your status whether your WhatsApp has been scanned by anyone.
I told you all, but it is the responsibility of all of us that we have to keep our data safe. we don’t want to be fooled.
Nowadays everyone’s mobile numbers are linked to their banks but we do not have to tell OTP to anyone, if you tell OTP to anyone then you can lost your bank balance.
Your bank also never calls you and asks for any information, if this happens to you, then you do not have to tell him anything, it can also be a fraud.
