Across the country, a scam has surfaced in which innocent citizens are being subjected to bank fraud and financial loss through WhatsApp hacking. Actress Zainab Raza has shared a shocking video on social media.
According to details, in a recently shared video, actress Zainab Raza stated that a person called her and said his name was Noman, claiming that a parcel had arrived for her.
Actress Zainab Raza said that at that time she was busy in shooting. She told him to send a picture of the parcel, upon which the person, calling himself Noman, said that he was sending her a WhatsApp code and asked her to send it back to him, and then she would receive the parcel.

The actress could not immediately understand why this person named Noman said so. But shortly afterward, when a message arrived on WhatsApp and she read it in detail, it was revealed that the person wanted to open her WhatsApp on another mobile phone, after which WhatsApp would no longer remain accessible to Zainab Raza.
Fortunately, being an educated woman, Zainab Raza understood this message and spoke to the person on the phone, demanding that he provide his identity card details, upon which the person abused her and hung up the phone.
This shows that, due to the attraction of parcels, many people end up having their WhatsApp hacked, and by giving away the code sent on WhatsApp, they lose access to their own WhatsApp. On WhatsApp, many people keep their bank account numbers and ATM PIN codes along with a lot of other information because they consider WhatsApp secure.
In addition, WhatsApp also contains personal data, photos, and videos, through which any criminal can easily blackmail innocent citizens and force them to do anything of his choice. Therefore, citizens should not share the code sent on WhatsApp with anyone when told about a parcel. Instead, they should also verify whether they had actually ordered any parcel. And even if that is the case, there is no need to share the code sent on WhatsApp, rather only the payment is made upon receipt of the parcel.
