A fake WhatsApp app, known as Pink WhatsApp, is becoming increasingly widespread in chat applications. The malicious software, developed by scammers, claims to bring new features to the messaging application. However, according to the ongoing efforts of cybersecurity teams, it poses a threat by collecting users’ information.
Beware of the Pink WhatsApp with “enhanced” features
Recently, the police have taken action against fake WhatsApp applications that have been spreading among users in India. The warning about Pink WhatsApp scams reports that a fake version of the application is being distributed.
This application claims to offer early-stage features tested by Meta, but it poses a danger by collecting user information. The police statement in India reported that thousands of users have put their data at risk by downloading this application.
WhatsApp is undergoing major changes on Android! Pink WhatsApp scams have not yet been observed in our country. However, it is important to note that such attacks spread rapidly through social media and various forums. Let’s remember that all updates for WhatsApp are provided through Google Play or the App Store.
Furthermore, it has been reported that WhatsApp has been testing a new design in recent days. It aims to redesign the buttons, starting with the Android version. The buttons will allow users to easily initiate a new chat and access all WhatsApp contacts.
