Summary | WhatsApp has been a target of attack from scammers; users receive texts that appear to be coming from friends and that contain links to hijack your phone. People are then redirected to a fake website where they are offered a voucher and are asked to register. If users register personal details such as name, e-mail address, and phone number, they can end up with malware on their phone.
