WhatsApp Scam Alert: Spanish Police Warn of Account Takeover Fraud
WhatsApp Scam Alert: Spanish National Police Warn of New Fraudulent Scheme Spain – The Spanish National Police are issuing a warning to citizens about a new WhatsApp scam targeting users. The scheme involves receiving an unsolicited verification code, followed by a request from a seemingly trusted contact to share the code under the guise of account verification. "Sharing this code will lead to the immediate loss of your WhatsApp account," explains a spokesperson in a recent video released by the police. The fraudsters then exploit access to the victim's contacts to solicit money transfers, often under the pretense of an urgent situation. The police emphasize the importance of verifying the authenticity of all requests for verification codes. "Never share your WhatsApp codes with anyone, even if the message comes from someone you know," the spokesperson urges. The police are encouraging anyone who has fallen victim to this scam to report it immediately. The video has gone viral, highlighting the effectiveness of the National Police's public awareness campaign. The quick dissemination of this warning is crucial in preventing further victims.
