WhatsApp has announced a new feature that will work as a safety guard for its users. This new feature will help keep users away from unknown and dangerous WhatsApp groups. Information regarding the same has been shared on the WhatsApp channels.
Recently, cases of cyber fraud have come up where the victim is first added to a group, and eventually, lakhs of rupees are withdrawn from his bank account. This feature has been included only to save innocent people from fraud.
After the latest feature, some information will have to be shared before adding any new users to the WhatsApp group. In a post shared by the WhatsApp channel, it was said that the users who are joining the group will have to give some important information.
WhatsApp users will have to tell who is adding them to the group when it was created, and details about the group will have to be given in this way. In such a situation, common people will be able to keep themselves, but for this, users will first have to activate the group privacy settings.
It is mentioned on the WhatsApp FAQ page that whenever someone adds you to a WhatsApp group, the company will show you the information that was filled out before adding you. After this, users will decide for themselves whether the group is safe or not. After this, they can either remain in the group or get removed by themselves.
This feature has been rolled out on WhatsApp. Some users have this feature, and in the coming days, this feature will reach everyone. For this, you can update WhatsApp by going to the Google Play Store. It is a popular messaging app, and millions of users use it in India.
