Help, My Whatsapp Account Is Hacked! by olatunyemi(m): 2:55pm On Feb 10, 2020
Please how may I retrieve my account. I had the two steps verification and the hacker has changed it, he changed my password and even email, I couldn't verify the account or have access to it till the next seven days according to Whatsapp helpline.

Please come to my aid as the guy has started using my account for different transactions and trying to dupe people

The essence of 2 step verification is for extra protection, you exposed yourself.........

Tell your friends to post on all the groups you belong warning members that your account have been hacked.

You sent him your OTP for a transaction? What transaction? You just shot yourself in the face.

Yes. He only needed that for access, he doesn't need the Sim or the code anymore

blocking your sim card will not stop him....sadly you may have to wait for 7 days as instructed while the scammer continue using your WhatsApp account.
the best thing you can do now is to notify those you are in the same group to remove you asap.
