Recently the news about WhatsApp is surfacing all over the internet. Whatsapp took some strict decision about their user’s security on the widely used messaging platform. The company already started taking action against users who are using a third-party application such as WhatsApp Plus, YOWhatsApp, BSE WhatsApp and GB WhatsApp by banning their account. So it is quite clear that this news about company policy is not a joke.
Most of the users asked about the reason for banning the account. Whatsapp further released an official statement for their action by saying that these modified versions of an application are developed by third source or party. So it’s not in the company’s hand to look for security of users. Many of these applications violate the official terms and conditions of the application. Lots of users are concern about their security and privacy, so banning of such account is better for everyone.
So if you received a pop-up message on your WhatsApp screen that ‘Your account is temporarily banned’ reasons might be you are using the unauthorized version of the application rather than official application.
Other than this user can also receive a message stating your number is banned on their WhatsApp screen. The message will further add contact support for help to provide guidance to their user.
