However, to protect users from such a phishing attempt, the police have issued certain guidelines. These dangers include financial loss, identity theft, spam attacks, unauthorised access to contact information and saved images, and even total loss of control over mobile devices. Users run the possibility of suffering negative outcomes if they click the Pink WhatsApp link, as the Mumbai Police have warned. By clicking the link, the user runs the risk of having their device compromised, which might allow scammers to steal their device information or use it without their permission.

The link that is present in the message, according to a notice from the police, is a phishing effort. This message makes a false guarantee that it will deliver an update that will change the WhatsApp logo’s colour and add new features for a better user experience.

The Mumbai Police have warned the public about an erroneous WhatsApp message that is now going around.
