People on WhatsApp have been warned of fraudsters pretending to be user support to scam users out of personal information.
WABetaInfo, a blog covering the messaging platform, has alerted users on how to recognise the signs.
"These contacts want to get some private information from you, for example, your credit card details to avoid terminating your WhatsApp account. In some cases, they also ask for your 6-digit code to log into your WhatsApp account!" says WABetaInfo.
