WhatsApp's screen share feature is very dangerous
WhatsApp has introduced the screen share feature just a few days ago. Although this is a very useful feature, it can also be misused. WhatsApp's screen share feature is similar to Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams. Through screen share, the screen of the laptop or phone can be shared with someone else, after which he can keep an eye on every activity happening on your laptop. With the help of this feature, cyber thugs are taking over people's systems and then cheating them. This scam is being called the WhatsApp screen share scam.
