All WhatsApp users should be on the lookout for a very convincing text that's making an unwanted return. The cyber experts at Action Fraud UK say they have begun receiving reports that chat app fans are once again being targeted by the dreaded six-digit code text.
This scam isn't actually new with hackers using it in the past to try and get full access to devices and the personal content that's stored on them. If you've never heard of this threat before then it's easy to see how people are being easily fooled.
The trick begins when you receive a message from an actual friend starting what appears to be a normal chat with you. At the same time, a six-digit code will suddenly appear on your device.
