Users looking to enable the Whatsapp VOIP calling feature should be aware of scams. The calling feature of the popular messaging application is enrolled slowly to users around the world. Whatsapp can either enable it for you, if you're lucky, but the feature is also enabled when someone who already has VOIP calls enabled, calls you.
Another requirement is to have the latest Whatsapp version installed, preferably through an app store. It's not possible to get the feature with another download. However, some scammers are currently trying to convince users to download a newer version of Whatsapp which, according to the scammers, has the calling feature enabled. Obviously it's just a trick to get users to install malicious software on their phone.
The message can also come from friends. If users have become victim of the scam, it will automatically send messages to friends.
If you're looking to get the VOIP calls enableds, just remember that clicking on a link with not help you to get the feature the enabled. You'll have to wait for a phone call from someone who already has the feature enabled or the Whatsapp servers simply have to enable it for you.
Unfortunately, because the feature only slowly becomes available, with millions of users looking for a way to enable it, it's likely many, many will become victims to these scams, so be warned!
