Online scams and frauds on WhatsApp have been on the rise for some time now. Scammers send messages to people from unknown numbers. Scammers often pretend to be the police or government officials, making people believe them. In some cases, scammers send people fake links, on which users’ entire bank accounts are emptied as soon as they are clicked. Considering all these and considering the security of users, now WhatsApp is working on a new feature. This new feature of the company can be released under the name Scam Alert. Under this feature, if any suspicious message is received, the user will be immediately alerted.
The new feature will inform the user instead of automatically blocking unknown and suspicious numbers. So that users will be able to make their own decisions. Users will be able to decide what action they want to take against the suspicious number or continue the conversation.
When you enable the scam alert feature in the phone, the app will review messages from unknown numbers directly on the device. If the system gets an indication that a message is fraudulent, a warning banner will appear in the chats. This alert banner may contain the message ‘This may be a scam’. After this the user will have the option to block and report the concerned number or trust it and continue the conversation.
