Part-time job scams are growing very fast in India. These scammers first message people on WhatsApp and then trap them in their net and take them to Telegram and then the scam happens. Now Meta has made a big decision to stop such scams.
Now messages coming from unknown numbers will be blocked in WhatsApp or simple words, no one will receive messages from unknown numbers, that is, if your number is not saved with someone, then you cannot message them on WhatsApp.
This is a part of WhatsApp's user's security. This feature of WhatsApp is going to shock scammers because their primary source of trapping people will end. The new feature is currently being tested on the beta version. According to the report of WABetaInfo, this feature of WhatsApp is being tested on Android's beta version 2.24.17.24, although there is no information about when its final update will be released.
Screenshots of the new feature have also surfaced in which it can be seen that the anonymous account can be blocked by going in advance in the privacy settings of WhatsApp. After that, no one will be able to message you from the new number. Let us tell you that this feature has been on Signal by default for a long time.
Another feature is coming in WhatsApp, after which, like Instagram, anyone's WhatsApp status can also be liked. Along with this, there will also be an option for quick replies, that is, you will be able to react to someone's status.
