Expert Opinion
Ever wondered why a stranger keeps asking for your WhatsApp verification code? It's a classic scam that tries to hijack your account by tricking you into sharing the one‑time verification code sent to your phone. The caller often pretends to be from WhatsApp support or a delivery service, but legitimate firms never request that code over the phone. If you receive such a call, hang up immediately, block the number, and report it to your carrier or to the official WhatsApp help center. Enable two‑step verification in the app and never disclose codes to anyone.
