Hello Techfundaz reader's , take note of this. There is a new whatsapp called Whatsapp Gold which contains "malware". And people are being tricked to download it.
Many people that have downloaded the app are now complaining that a message is always popping up for them to sign up to the service directly from Whatsapp Gold site. This app will steal your data and share it to the Hacker. The developer of the app claims that the messenging app is for big celebrities and also we are oportuned to enjoy same app which is the trick they used in getting you to download the Whatsapp Gold that will cut your life span with ADS and also steal your data.
The app's extra features (which the scammers claim have only previously been available to top celebrities) include the ability to send hundreds of pictures at once, new emojis, video calling, enhanced security features and more customisation options.
Whatsapp as a company has made it clear that Whatsapp Plus is not officially from them; which is, they are not the developer of Whatsapp Plus and they don't have any relationship with the developer of Whatsapp Plus and also, Whatsapp added, if they noticed any user that have those malicious software on their phone will get banned.
The alarm was raised by Action Fraud, the UK’s national reporting centre for fraud and cybercrime, but according to Tech Worm, users from India, Pakistan and Brazil have also been receiving the message.
The website to which the victims are directed has been taken down, but it’s easy for the scammers to set up new ones and simply change the URL in the message.
“After clicking on the link you will be redirected to a fake page and your Android device will become infected with malware,” Action Fraud warns. Other sources say that users must download the app themselves.
But whatever the process, it’s clear that the fake app is bad news for the victims.
My fellow readers of this blog Techfundaz, beware of this Whatsapp Gold and stay safe.
