WhatsApp chief warns users of fake messenger app

With more than two billion active users, WhatsApp is the most messenger app on both the iOS and Android platforms. Some of the primary reasons for such a good response from users are– simple and easily understandable interface, value-added features such as disappearing messages, multi-device support, and more.

However, recently, it has come to light that several bad actors, in a bid to hoodwink new users are releasing fake WhatsApp apps online. With this, they steal personally identifiable details and even go to extent of stealing money.

WhatsApp global head Will Cathcart and his team have warned users to be alert of the counterfeit messenger app.
