Millions could be BLOCKED from the app for three simple mistakes

WHATSAPP will ban users if they violate the strict rules of the service.

The problem is that most people don’t even know what the dos and don’ts are exactly.

Sure, knowingly sending a virus or scam is a pretty obvious way to get kicked off the platform.

But sometimes things you think are innocent actually break the rules.

You will know that you have been blocked from WhatsApp when a message appears stating “Your phone number has been blocked from using WhatsApp. Contact support for assistance.”

To avoid this fate, there are a few things you should avoid.

1. Annoys too many

It goes without saying that being a pain to too many people can effectively get you banned.

If you go so far as to have other users report you, you’ll draw WhatsApp’s attention for all the wrong reasons.

So maybe file the annoying spam messages in countless groups.

2. Using unofficial versions of WhatsApp

There are a number of WhatsApp clone apps that use the same system, e.g. B. GBWhatsApp and WhatsApp Plus.

But WhatsApp bosses don’t want you to use these unofficial clones.

If they find you using anything other than the original, they will ban you.

3. Sending hoaxes

We all like to laugh, but there are limits.

Spreading fake news and hoaxes is a big taboo.

So if you get caught doing it – and ultimately get reported for it – you risk getting banned.
