Silicon Valley - WhatsApp's Facebook messaging app will soon introduce a cool feature to protect user accounts.
According to a report on the technology website WABeta, WhatsApp is working on a new feature called `` Flash Call '' to protect itself from one-time password (OTP) fraud.
With this new feature, users no longer need a 6-digit security code to verify their account. Instead, this feature will automatically verify the user's phone number. The application will need to provide access to the call log, followed by WhatsApp, which will automatically receive the call and verify the user's WhatsApp account.
According to the website, this feature is available in version 2.21.11.7 of Android WhatsApp. According to an image published in the report, flash calls are an optional feature and it is up to the user whether or not to grant WhatsApp access to their call log.
It should be noted that WhatsApp has repeatedly informed its users about this fraud in the shadow of the OTP. Cyber criminals often send deceptive messages to hack into a user's WhatsApp accounts saying, "You must verify your account via OTP and if not, deactivate it." It will be done. '
As soon as the user sends the OTP to the hacker, the hacker hacks his account.
