WhatsApp's three-month-long campaign highlights simple-yet-effective ways to enable WhatsApp safety features and focuses on the importance of safeguarding users’ accounts.
As per a report by WaBetaInfo, WhatsApp is working on a new feature which will allow users to lock chats using a passcode or fingerprint. This will enhance the privacy of users by avoiding the risk of confidential and sensitive information being leaked.
This new feature will improve the users' privacy as it will help users to lock their most private chats within the chat's contact or group info, reports WABetaInfo.
The victim had approached the Kodigehalli police last month regarding cheating of Rs 15 lakh. The inspector got her mobile number and started chatting with her after a few days.
The new features which will start rolling out globally over the coming weeks, come just a few months after WhatsApp launched Communities, a feature that offers larger, more structured discussion groups.
