The New Whatsapp Gold: Reasons You Shouldn’t Upgrade So Soon by eazydon(m): 7:33pm On May 23, 2016 |
If you see an exclusive invitation to WhatsApp Gold, don’t be too fast to hit on the download. The upgrade, which is allegedly used by celebs, claims to offer new features such as the ability to have video chats, send 100 pictures at once and, tantalisingly, the ability to delete messages after you have sent them. People have been sent a link offering to install a new version of the messaging app, but don’t be fooled. The download actually leads to malware, which could infect your phone allowing hackers to spy on your details. Users receive a message that says: ‘Hey Finally Secret Whatsapp golden version has been leaked, This version is used only by big celebrities. Now we can use it too’. But the exclusive upgrade does not actually exist, and what you’ll actually be downloading is software which could open your phone up to hackers. So far, it has mainly infected Android devices. Those who have downloaded it are advised to install antivirus software and only install apps via the Google Play Store in future. If you see an ‘invite’, delete the message. http://trend.com.ng/3200/the-new-whatsapp-gold-reasons-you-shouldnt-upgrade-so-soon/ 1 Like |

Only those who do acknowledge the spam messages will fall for this... Google play Store hasn't failed me when it comes to notifying me that there is an update for some apps.... Play store is the only Legal notification... I'm quite sure that when the time comes.. Play store will surely do its job. 2 Likes |
