Which kind person u b .. why u go give out any code at all and talk u dey play along... just admit, U dull small

My bad bro. I always thought 419ners string you along to a point where money would be requested. I never knew their plan here is not money at first. And honestly, it was later that I discovered the code was not from him but from WhatsApp.

Which registration?.... If you mean "WhatsApp registration" with your phone number ... Then the answer is YES, thier registration cannot be successful without the CODEs.

Thanks so much. God bless.

Onyeka90210:

1. Yes they can't access your whatsapp again, except you share the code to them
2. Yes, whatsapp asks occasionally, so you won't forget it, but not everytime you log in.

Thanks and God bless.

You're safe with the Two step Verification if you don't share your code with anyone...
...
They can't access your account remotely without the codes

Thanks.

With the 2 step, they can't't access, you mean, even if they've succeeded in the registration.

Onyeka90210:
1. You'll know if your whatsapp has been successful logged Into another device, because it'll stop working in your current phone, till you reactivate it again.
2. Anyone can use your phone number to try and register for whatsapp, but what they need to successfully do it is the sms OTP code sent to your line, and then if you do have 2 step on, they'll need your whatsapp security code.
3. If they somehow succeeded in getting your OTP and their in, you can reactive the whatsapp on your current phone, by requesting OTP again, and putting it In the current phone, so this will hijack the whatsapp back from him. If he has access to your sim, he can hijack it again, except you put on 2step
4. Nah, they can't see your old chats or contacts
But if someone sends you a message after the hack, they can see it and the person's number, though it'll appear unsaved
5. I mean, you don't have to deactive whatsapp on your second phone before activating on a new phone.
If they require you to deactivate before you can activate, it'll mean those with stolen or lost phones will loose their whatsapp forever.
So anyone can hijack your whatsapp if they have access to your sim that'll receive the OTP: or you send the OTP to them

Thanks so much.

1. But suppose the 2 step was after they succeeded in registering with my number, would setting it up from my side prevent them from accessing my account?

2. And again, why is the 2 step not asking me to provide the codes everytime I want to log in, but occasionally?

bluebay:
Even if you have given him the code and he signed you out, you can still daaaaaaaaa access as long as you have the registered SIM card with you .cheers

I am not signed out. My biggest concern is, how would I know whether he was able to succeed in registering my number on a new device? And if he did, how would I make the account disabled?

PLS HELP: SOMEONE TRYING TO REGISTER MY WHATSAPPS NUMBER ON ANOTHER DEVICE.

A man claiming to be 'organizing a Zoom Meeting' for our staff I believe is out to scam or use my WhatsApp account for criminal activities.

The man called me two days ago in the evening and said he has enrolled me for a meeting and I should send him a code he sent to my phone for verification.

From the start I knew he is a scammer but decided to play along and called him out when it comes to times he'd ask for some money to be sent to him.

I did called out to him the 6-number code sent to my phone, but upon reading the whole notification I realized that the message was from WhatsApp and the code was to be used to register my WhatsApp number on another device. I Immediately set up a WhatsApp two step verification to forestall this.

About an hour after this, another notification arrived with another code and the man called me again. I flared up here telling him that he's a scammer and some angry words.

I don't know whether it is the 2 step verification I engaged my WhatsApp account that prevented the initial registration or entry into my account that necessitated the the second attempt to generate another code.

MY ISSUES NOW ARE:

1. How would I know whether they've succeeded in creating an account with my number?

2. Would the WhatsApp 2 step verification prevent them from registering or entry if they've registered with the number?

3. How would I disable the account if they've succeeded?

4. Would they have access to my contacts, in the event that they they succeeded?

5. Why would WhatsApp allow for another registration on another device when my current line is active on a device recognized by them?

I kindly need your assistance, as anyone out to possess other people's profiles n

JASONjnr:


I've modified my original post and I think you don't have any thing to worry for....

Okay thanks.

JASONjnr:
You people will never learn....

WhatsApp is more private and the hacking tendency is becoming high.... compare to Facebook as people aren't taking the platform anymore serious...

Try to run a two step verification and that will solve your problem and stop using GB WhatsApp

Hello Jason, I did run athe 2 step verification, I have some questions up there if you can touch on them.

What the hell. Another one from IPIGs.
You cannot turn us against our own. Whether you like it or not, IPIG Obi will have 10% vote for the South West, 1% from the north, 30% from South South, whatever from Biafra. Make una rest on top Asiwaju matter abeg.

Haba br^, 30% from the SW is too much now.

Why una want disgrace us? I won't be happy with you guys if Obi got more than 1 - 2% of the SW votes.

Popesuccess:
What is i am saying is that it is not fair on Nigeria to have another sick president.

At their ages, which of the presidential candidates can be said to be top-notch healthy?

Even Kwankwaso and Obi who look the younger of the bunch could be harbouring onr age-related health issues or the other as all of them are above 60 (just fig and you'll find)

FD Roosevelt was paralyzed from the waist down and spent most of his presudency on a wheelchair; yet he was one of the best presidents that the US has produced.

Let's just pray for who can do his best and leave it at that.

Popesuccess:
He is sick, and it is not such a bad thing considering his age. But he should not be seeking to rule Nigeria in that consider. It is selfishness on his part and wickedness against the Nigerian people

In what way is it any problem since he's not infringing on any part of the Constitution?

So, what you're suggesting is illegal and an infringement of the rights of every Nigerian.

In a way you're being undemocratic and dictatorial.

It may cause an uproar to you if you're not a Muslim.

Ask a Muslim friend to explain to you what might have necessitated such a posture.

How soon you've forgotten 'Atikulate.'

Gohs:
Now that they have Baba-Ahmed, he'll help with translating English to Hausa.

By the way, lots of people later came for the LP rally at Osun.

Those pictures you saw were taken at the START of the rally before people began to arrive.

God forbid bad tin, so naso dey reduce VP to - a translator of Obi's campaign messages.

That's why LP will never win. All those investments and millions of dollars dem say Obi dey make are for what?

cybersoldiers:


My brother campaign never start.

Labour party has billionaires waiting to fund...
E never reach.

Be hopeful.

Peter Obi is Coming.

These billionaire should come oo, before hunger pursue everybody comot as e don already pursue Peter Obi.

Viscuz:
Ajekutu

Viscuz, where is the 55 gotten from? Or just because somebody, who might possibly be a paid hack said so, you want us to take it hook, line and sinker.

Check well, maybe you misquoted him.

He may mean Peter Obi may only become a governor in Alaigbo, not president of Nigeria, which may be too tasking for him.

Okiki22242:
Ori e buru ode oshi

This one dey sound like Peter Obi people!!

Okiki22242:
dispute my article...no dey call Jonathan name

There's nothing to dispute when you're just iPoBic.

We've seen FFK and Omokri and how it's all about stomach infrastructure.

Those who came so loud usually go down so easily.

Let this Hundeyin be all noise and no substance oo!

Elections are about voting.

Just vote Peter Obi if you think he's the least insultive; but don't come here complaining if he gives your defence ministry to iPoB.

BobbyZrealist:


There are proofs,it is a fact it is not a fallacy.

And also when I'm on the other side.....I will be treated as a Christian and not a Northerner.
Or you don't know?

Okay oo! Let's hope history doesn't repeat itself.

That's if you know what I am talking about.

iPoB cloning oyibo just as Omokri cloned Wendell Simlin's identity to tarnish Sanusi's image for exposing their corruption in NNPC.

BobbyZrealist:


Are you talking about the Buhari who told a crowd of supporters in 2002 at Kaduna that "a true Muslim will vote for a Muslim".
Or,the baboon and the dog will soak in blood" statement,or "we will make the government ungovernable" or an attack on B/H is an attack on the North".
Or the one that has an Extremist Sheik who supports a world known terrorist organization as a Minister in the cabinet?

I can't be treated like the Hausa Man,I have rejected the Caliphate both in Body, Spirit and Soul.

Pls I don't like engaging in unsubstantiated statements.

You are wrong on the statements you attributed to Buhari. If you can't back up or know the meanings of what you're saying, let's not even go there.

And what I mean by you'd be treated as Hausa is, when ethnic problems arise, like if iPoB are looking for northerners, they wouldn't care that you call yourself a northern Christian. Whatever befalls a Hausa man would be applied to you.

athaboi:
I love this...obi is now the opposition PDP is now the third force

Atiku has destroyed PDP.

Nobody is talking about them now.

BobbyZrealist:


Petty question.....
Don't deviate,stay on the line.

For long the patience and enduance has elapsed,we can neither be coarsed nor cajoled,we have learnt our lesson.
Religious politics started from the North, Buhari to be precise..
During the 2011 elections,I was in the NE and what they where told and believed is something you would close your ears if I say.
You won't want me going there.
For peace to reign,soonest Christians and Muslims would have to go separate ways..

I think more from Jonathan than Buhari. Jonathan. It was who was pronouncing state policies from the churches he attends on Sundays. Pastor Oritsejafor, CAN president at the time was acting more like a government employee, culminating in his plane being caught with millions of dollars in South Africa trying to buy arms.

And if you're from the North at all, be reminded that you'll be treated the same way a Hausa man would when the time for the separation you're clamouring comes.

Leave Nnamdi Kanu with his iPoBians and their shenanigans.

What's their own sef, after all they said they're not Nigerians.

BobbyZrealist:


I am from the NE,which is dynamic like the SW. There are large number of Christians in Borno South,Gombe South,Adamawa and Bauchi mostly in Tafawa Balewa and Das.
But,In the NW where Muslims are over 90%,tell me one state apart from Kaduna where there are large Christian population,where a Christian has been given political office? From Sokoto,to Zamfara to Kebbi,Katsina and Kano?
That is why Christians don't complain about the issue in this areas because they are majority,so it wouldn't make sense.
NB:Nassarawa state is over 80% Christians (Gbagyi,Mada,Eggon etc) and all the governors that have ruled are Hausa or Fulani and two of their Senators too are Muslims yet the people are not bringing down the sky.
The only Christian that became Gov.in KD was murdered,or you people think we have all of a sudden forgotten?

FYI the major reason GEJ was hated by the North was not beacause he was not leading well,but because the Northern elites told their illiterate dumb supporters that they should not let an infidel(ARNE) to never lead them.

If it where to be fair after OBJ,was Musa YAr'adua,after him was GEJ,after him is PMB,so after him should be who?
A Christian from the South.....but,even though Muslims know this they still want to rule after PMB,is that not myopic.

Wrong assertion!!

If the elites told the masses in the North that they shouldn't allow a Christian GEJ to lead them, where is the same accusation for Obasanjo? Or, is he not a Christian?

Reasonable4me:

Bro I don't mean to trade words but to be honest the about less than fifty supposed Igbo Muslims I've read or heard of are all here on nairaland.

If you know anyone that has contested In The past please present the poster which he contested in

Why should you wait for them to come and contest, go find them as you're insisting APC must find a Christian VP.

Just go and find them!!

It's time they convince us that winning online is winning on-ground.
