Indian Army Warns, Chinese Hackers Targeting WhatsApp To Steal Information


Chinese Hackers are trying to hack WhatsApp and steal your personal data.



Army advised users to be vigilant and urged them to conduct regular audits of their groups to see if any number starting with +86 had joined a group.

"The Chinese use all kinds of platforms to penetrate your digital world. WhatsApp groups are a new way of hacking into your system.

The Additional Directorate General of Public Interface (ADGPI) said the Chinese were penetrating the digital world.

Chinese numbers starting with +86 barge into your groups and start extracting all the data," says the video, tweeted from the army's official handle.

In case you change the SIM, destroy it completely,” the video said. It went to add that information mined from such groups was being leaked to Chinese hackers
