How to Deal with YOWhatsApp Spam

No one likes spam and false advertising. Yet they continue to flood the platforms and have an extremely negative impact on people. YO WhatsApp has also suffered from the invasion of spam. As these spam emails contain malicious content, our personal information is often obtained in the form of online scams, phishing, false advertising and more. Many of us simply know to use the YO WhatsApp customisation, hiding features etc., but are unable to tackle the spam.

Now I can show you how to identify which ones are spam and how we can stop the spam from appearing frequently on YO WhatsApp.

What is spam?

It’s easy to distinguish spam on YO WhatsApp. Generally the following two situations occur which are most likely to be spam.

Contains suspicious links

Opening a suspicious link is likely to cause your web page to automatically redirect you to another page containing a malware download.

Once you have downloaded it, there is a high risk that this malware will steal your personal information and your other valuable personal data.

Grammatical errors and misspellings

Receiving documents containing grammatical errors and misspellings is no doubt not a regular email. They can look weird, and sometimes the system will automatically identify them as spam and alert you to clean them up in time.

Sometimes, however, these emails are not easily perceived by you or the system as being dangerous. The wording of the texts is somewhat deceptive. They include claims to be from WhatsApp or the YO WhatsApp team, asking you to contact them with your WhatsApp account, or congratulating you on receiving some kind of gift from WhatsApp.
