8696 verification code Pakistan_HOW TO VERIFY WHATSAPP


To verify the phone number for whatsapp account, whatsapp usually sends an authentication SMS to verify your phone number so can you start your whatsapp.So your account verification code is 8696 which usually send you sms after you enter your account information.The user got access to the account as this code automatically conforms to the number ownership.


But a scam has been observed by PTA in Pakistan for the last few years.
Actually, to give security to the users a scam has been applied because many fraud people try to install WhatsApp on their own device and on their number section they give an unknown number.And in this way they ask the other common user of this number to give the code by calling on that number which they used to fraud.So they can misuse this service because they will make the account on your number if you have given the code to them.


RECEIVE VERIFICATION CODE WITHOUT REQUESTING IT:


When someone tries to register whatsapp account with your number, whatsapp will send you a push notifications to protect your account.And to keep your WhatsApp account safe never share your verification code with any one.


And if you ever receive this notification then be alert that someone has entered your phone number and is now requesting for code.This may also happen when someone attempts to take over your account or it may also happen if someone is registering his number but by mistake, he has typed your number.


You should not share your code with any one.If any one is trying to take over your account then they would need an sms verification code to do all this and that code will be received to your number.And if any user is trying to verify your number can not complete the verification process without this code that you have received and so this he would not be able to use your number on whatsapp.So it means that you would be in control of your WhatsApp account.
