Be careful, a new text bomb is making WhatsApp crash and will hang your phone

WhatsApp has been the target of many hackers in the past who have used or tried to use, the app to break into people’s phones to steal information or causing them to crash and hang. The latest in that line of attacks are happening right now, reported the Deccan Herald.

WABetaInfo shared a tweet recently asking people to share ideas for new WhatsApp features for both iOS and Android.

A user with the handle @Ian_Oli_01 responded to that tweet with two screenshots and a message that reads – “Anti crash integrated into official WhatsApp: There are messages designed to freeze or crash your WhatsApp. Then there are modded WhatsApp versions that have a ‘Crashcode protection’ like a bigger Unicode database. We need this integrated into the official application.”
