WhatsApp has a new official warning for the billions of people who use its application worldwide on phones, and we are talking about an extremely important message that should be on everyone's attention.

Thanks to this system, when someone tries to steal our account and log into WhatsApp from another phone, they will have to use the PIN set by us for the 2-step authentication system, increasing the level of security substantial.
