Is someone else using your WhatsApp account? Know this easily and stay safe
Like many other online apps, WhatsApp also works to keep users’ data private and secure. Despite this, by taking advantage of the flaw in WhatsApp, hackers keep trying to take access to the user’s account.
If you think that someone else is accessing your WhatsApp account, it can be traced. Here we are telling about the ways by which you can find out if someone else is accessing your WhatsApp account.
You should first check WhatsApp Activity. If someone else has access to your WhatsApp, then you can check messages, WhatsApp call history. If you see messages that you have not sent, then you need to be careful.
You also need to see your contact information. After hacking your account, hackers start changing your contact information. You can check this by going to your profile on WhatsApp. If you see this change then you need to secure the account.
Apart from this, you can check whether your account is not open anywhere by going to WhatsApp Web or a linked device. If you think that your account is open elsewhere then you can unlink or log out of it.
To keep your WhatsApp account secure, you must enable Two-Factor Authentication. This will require a PIN to log in on the new device. With this, you can set a PIN by going to WhatsApp Settings and Account.
