How to Protect Yourself from Cybercriminals in WhatsApp

2025 has become an alarming signal for WhatsApp users. The number of cyberattacks and phishing links spread through the messenger’s chats has increased dramatically.

According to IT experts, in January alone a record number of phishing domains was detected — significantly more than a year earlier. Fraudsters are increasingly using WhatsApp to steal data and commit financial fraud.

In addition, cybersecurity specialists have recently discovered a new virus called Graphite. It infiltrates smartphones through regular PDF files and immediately starts collecting confidential data: SMS confirmation codes, access to banking services, emails, card numbers, and passwords.

⚠️ Be careful: one wrong click may cost you access to your account.
