Fake WhatsApp messages
1 year ago
Hi sir, since from two weeks daily I'm getting WhatsApp threatening messages stating that I need to pay the due or else they will contact my friends and family. I even not taken any loan from any app. Daily I'm blocking and reporting their numbers but next day I'm getting message from different number for different app due. Daily changing apps names also (cashcom,rupeewallet...etc) in that message asking to download app from browser. Please let me know the solution for this. Even I tried to call on those numbers some of them are switched off some of them saying they even don't have WhatsApp in their phone.
