ESET experts warn against a spam campaign directed at Whatsapp messenger.

Multiple WhatsApp users have received messages from people who are claiming to be “representing” the application. These people promise a 1000 GB free internet credit as reward for completing survey. An additional requirement is to send a message with link to 30 people.

In order to lower the vigilance of users of the popular messenger app the survey page is similar to the WhatsApp website along with information about a promo for the 10th anniversary of the brand.

ESET experts did not detect any malware associated with the link in the message. However, fraudsters earn money from clicks generated by people that filled out the survey.
