Beware this Whatsapp scam.
1, You receive an unexpected message from WhatsApp with a verification code.
(Fraudsters have entered your number into WhatsApp triggering the verification code text.)
2, One of your contacts will message via the app, with a story to try to persuade you to give them the code. EG, they’ve entered your number by mistake.
It seems to be from a relative or friend, so people have been tricked into passing on the verification code.
3, Fraudsters take over your account.
