in #news7 years ago (edited)

At November 02 People spotted a fake version of WhatsApp app for Android on the Play Store that has already tricked more than one million users into downloading it .. ^^

With the same title the actual WhatsApp messenger uses on Google Play.

The app maker added a Unicode character space after the name like that WhatsApp+Inc%C2%A0

because this character space at the end of the WhatsApp Inc
will be hidden so it's will appeared same to people

the app was not a chat app just gives people advertisements in order to download other apps.
it's has some code to download a second apk , with the same name 'whatsapp.apk.' the apps try to install hidden with blank icon .. !

Now Google has removed the fake WhatsApp At Play Store
So you maybe one of them who download it , Always Try To check Apps Even The Official apps ^^
