The WhatsApp application has unfortunately become a den of fraud and scams due to which people can easily steal other person’s character numbers, so several users have received fraudulent calls that are not well-intentioned. But fortunately, a method has already emerged to avoid these calls, which can be very harmful.
It has a function of silencing unknown calls, which is easy to activate that will help the user not to be harassed in any way by people they know in real life and it really should be a victim of scams. The best thing is that they will be notified only from people who have added contacts in the smartphone.
Follow these steps to activate:
You will need to access the settings or configuration within the application and enter the privacy options. Once in the section, you need to enter the call and activate the Silence call from unknown number option.
This will be enough so that the calls of these people who are not added will no longer ring, this includes messages, yes, if you meet someone to add them to their contacts, you must verify the message so that you can add it to your phone later. And you can now receive your messages without problems.
Through: WhatsApp
Editor’s note: It is good to know that this function exists, to avoid annoying calls that only want to get money from the victim, so it will be worth activating it from now on.
