Recently, I have noticed so many scam messages are being spread through WhatsApp. The following message is one of them "Hey Finally Secret Whatsapp golden version has been leaked, This version is used only by big celebrities.Now we can use it too ,Whatsapp Gold Contains many advanced features like Whatsapp Video calling , Delete the messages you sent by mistake , Send more than 100 pics at once ,Free calling ,Change whatsapp themes and tons of great features.This whatsapp gold can be activated only Via Invites and I am inviting you.Once you activate this whatsapp gold , your green icon will change to gold and you can enjoy all features 100% safely.Activate whatsapp Gold with one click at https://www.goldenversion.com/"
www.goldenversion.com is a scam?
In the above message, the scammers provide a link (www.goldenversion.com), I have checked the website and found that, its merely a scam.
How does this scam people
The website offers you a Golden Version of WhatsApp. But if you follow the given link from your phone (you can't see the website using your computer's web browser), for the very first you will be asked to invite your friends before you will get the download link. After you finish inviting your friend, you will be asked to download another application or to complete a Survey. Finally, unfortunately you will never get the offered WhatsApp Gold.
Here, when you finish a survey, or when you download an application from their website, the Scammers earn money from promoting any 3rd party Applications and displaying Advertisements, also they earn a good money on making us doing survey for 3rd party companies.
In conclusion, they make money using us, and they won't give anything us as they offered. Pls don't be trapped in such fake messages.
