However, the popularity of the app and the fact that anyone who knows your phone number could send you a message means that WhatsApp scamming is real. While the main feature is texting, WhatsApp also allows you to create statuses, send voice messages, share your location and make voice and video calls. WhatsApp is a great way to stay in touch with friends and family around the world. Although someone can send you a message, it’s up to you to decide if you’d like to engage, delete or block the stranger. You can adjust your account settings to hide your profile information such as your contact photo or when you’re online from strangers or people who aren’t on your contact list. WhatsApp users have some protections when using WhatsApp.
