A security researcher published a tweet reporting on WhatsApp Pink trading, and through screen shots he clarified the differences between the original WhatsApp and the Pink WhatsApp and said: “WhatsApp Pink is largely targeted at the police and media professionals, and a link to download the app was initially sent to police officers in Delhi and Rajasthan. “.
And WhatsApp stated in a statement: "Anyone can receive an unusual, unspecified or suspicious message through any service, including e-mail, and we strongly encourage everyone to exercise caution before responding or participating."
“We also recommend that people use the tools we provide inside the app to send us a report, report a contact, or block a contact,” he added.
It is reported that this is not the first time that a fake version of WhatsApp has been traded, as in the past users were attacked through the WhatsApp Gold application that was also created by some hackers to obtain user data maliciously.
