Applications for tapping WhatsApp are currently much sought after by WA to tap conversations with partners or other users for certain reasons.
Even though this is considered bad because it violates someone's privacy, some users are still looking for various eavesdropping applications that are considered effective for snooping on other people's conversations.
One of the software that is said to be able to tap WhatsApp chat is the SocialSpy WhatsApp .
So what is SocialSpy WhatsApp? Is it true that SocialSpy WhatsApp can be used for eavesdropping? What are the risks of using SocialSpy WhatsApp?
Actually, valid information about SocialSpy WhatsApp is quite minimal. If you search for it on Google, the search results will lead to a tool that is said to be able to check or peek at the conversation history of the targeted WhatsApp user.
When you click site , only a page appears that displays the WhatsApp logo along with how to tap other users' WhatsApp. According to the tutorial presented, how to hack WhatsApp starts by entering the target cell phone number you want to tap.
Then, users will be asked to verify, so they can peek at the chat the target WhatsApp account.
Risk scam
The verification process seems to be just a cover. According to cybersecurity observer from Pasifik.com, Alfons Tanujaya, SocialSpy WhatsApp is actually just a scam or fraud application.
application scam itself is an application that masquerades or claims to be another application, where in reality, the main function of the application does not match the description.
This application will deceive potential victims, by directing victims to advertisement sites under the guise of verification.
"This is a scam . So, the victim is tricked by an animated screen as if the process of spying on the number he is targeting is running," said Alfons.
"When the application (SpocialSpy WhatsApp ) is opened, the user is instead directed to an advertising site under the guise of verification," he added.
Sure enough, when blogbebasapaaja , the SocialSpy WhatsApp actually displayed user verification by filling out several surveys. If one of the survey options is clicked, the user will be directed to a particular ad site.
Therefore, it can be said that this site does not have a tapping function as is being talked about at this time.
SocialSpy is just an advertising site that directs visitors to click on one of these menus and provides benefits for the creators of the SocialSpy application.
"If (the ad) is clicked, the maker of scam will get financial benefits from clicking on the ad," explained Alfons.
Should not be installed
Alfons advised that the SocialSpy WhatsApp application not be downloaded, even installed on the device. This is because this application will not provide the main function as promised, namely tapping other people's WhatsApp accounts.
Then, this application is just a trap that actually directs users to advertising sites, where only the developer benefits, as described earlier.
In addition, unofficial applications such as SocialSpy WhatsApp are also at risk of stealing personal data and also carrying malware dangerous
Is there any software to tap WhatsApp free?
According to Alfons, there is actually no software that can be safely installed for free to hack WhatsApp accounts.
This is because WhatsApp itself has an end-to-end encryption that is useful for securing text, image, sound, or video messages, where only the recipient and sender can access the message.
In fact, WhatsApp cannot even know the messages sent or received by the user.
Alfons also added, if there is a WhatsApp eavesdropping application , it is possible that the software was produced by a large and small company and will probably be used for free by the public, aka not free.
In addition, if there is a wiretapping application, it is likely that only the authorities such as the State Intelligence Agency can use it legally.
Meanwhile, public users are advised not to intercept WhatsApp in order to respect the privacy of other users.
