As a reminder, the new WhatsApp privacy policy came into effect on May 15th. Against this background, the network began to spread information that the messenger would become paid if the user did not accept the innovations. Moreover, the senders inform that in order not to encounter this, this message should be sent to 10 contacts, and each such SMS will cost 0,01 euros.

As it turned out, such messages are sent to users by hackers. “The content of these messages is not true. Our new update is related to additional business features of WhatsApp ”, – assured the representative of the messenger.
