Thank you for the information, why cant Whatsapp send messages to its users alerting them of this scam. I had followed the instructions but when I was in the middle of the process I discovered that it is a scam, when they were talking about winning an IPhone.
What happens if someone has already followed the instructions
Uninstall any application that you were instructed to download, and change your WhatsApp password.
Please guys, we very tired of scam people. I advise all those who are interested in this 4.0 whatsapp, not to download it.
