⚠️ It starts with a message from someone you know…

Today we helped 2 customers who had their WhatsApp accounts hijacked — and both started the same way:

“Hey, I accidentally sent you a code… can you send it to me?”

❌ That code = full access to your WhatsApp

Once they’re in, they:
• Message your contacts pretending to be you
• Ask for money or “urgent help”
• Try to take over more accounts

______

🚨 If this happens to you:

1️⃣ DO NOT share the code (ever)
2️⃣ If you already did → log back into WhatsApp immediately with your number
3️⃣ If you see “try again later” → stop and wait (or it gets worse)
4️⃣ Warn your contacts ASAP

_____

🔐 Important:
If a PIN has been set (and it wasn’t you), you may need to wait up to 7 days to fully regain access.

_____

👉 This scam works because it comes from someone you trust.

If you’re locked out or unsure what’s happening, we can help you get back in quickly.
