Messaged by an unknown person on WhatsApp?
Hello,
Someone just messaged me on WhatsApp with an American cell phone number. The person has a user profile, but I don't know them.
Message history:
hello
how are you
How did this person get my WhatsApp number? There are only 10 private individuals who have it. The number is new. How could anyone think of texting a stranger with such small talk?
Have you ever had something like this happen? Should I respond, or could something happen? What would you do?
Report! These are spam numbers that might be a bot and have your phone number completely randomly. In principle, I wouldn’t worry. If she’s blocked, she can’t do you. And importantly, don’t answer it!
What happens when you answer? (does not know)
When answering such persons, they can trace certain items such as address or personal data on the basis of the number and message.
You’re welcome to never do that, not out of curiosity! Once he has your data, you can’t do more.
Thank you, I almost answered the person from curiosity.
No, don’t answer. That we’re spam. Such NAC gears are usually sent by distributors who pass through all possible numbers. When you answer, you give a signal that the number is active. And then you get more and more spam. Block users and good.
Maybe he has the wrong number or it’s just spam. Easy to block and continue :o)
I’d like answers and keep writing that you’re okay and say that you’re not the American thinks
No, don’t answer! These numbers can trace something in the worst case if you answer them.
