Anyone can close your WhatsApp account.

Anyone can close your WhatsApp account.

Popular messaging app WhatsApp has been at the center of discussions since January. They sparked widespread discussion and criticism of privacy policy issues. But the new controversy has started again after going to WhatsApp. This time the content is completely different. A team of security experts has discovered a security loophole in WhatsApp. Today's article is about the details of this topic and what you can do to protect your account.

Details about the security loophole have been made public today through Forbes. Cyber ​​security related experts and researchers usually find out the weaknesses of security. This time too is no exception. Those security loopholes had no chance of being abused by anyone other than them. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to misuse those floss without a highly skilled expert. But the exception is that this time the goodness that has been revealed to the public can be abused by anyone if they want to because of personal enmity. It does not require any tools or additional skills. All you need is a WhatsApp account number.

This time let's come to this security goodness. This is a vulnerability that anyone can take advantage of to close your account forever. Even if you can stop here, it is better to say that you will not be able to take full control of your account. This means that the perpetrator will not allow you to use it even if you do not use it yourself. The whole process has already been detailed on all mainstream websites but we will not discuss the whole process as anyone can take advantage of this article. But in a nutshell, While you are using your account, the perpetrator will try to login with your number, which will cause the OTP code to come to your phone. The perpetrator will not know this OTP code but he will not be able to ask for a new OTP code for 12 hours due to trying the wrong OTP code After doing this a few times and following a few more steps, the WhatsApp account running on your phone will be logged out. You will not be able to login again later.

WhatsApp has not yet commented on the security loophole. But WhatsApp's Spokesperson has suggested to keep the Email Address attached in Two Factor Authentication. Moreover, if the OTP code comes to your phone automatically, then there is a suggestion to contact WhatsApp Support.
