font-size: 14pt;\">A lot of people are beginning to misuse the application. Now, people try to carry out malicious and spam activities using the platform, which is affecting the platform&#8217;s reputation. Therefore, in a bid to regain people&#8217;s trust and curb these misuses, WhatsApp does not move to ban some users&#8217; accounts, and they can&#8217;t reactivate and use the platform anymore using the restricted mobile number unless they contact the support team.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Much fake news we hear today is emancipated from WhatsApp spammers. This has made some people look for alternatives, and WhatsApp is trying to fix this. The company has now reported that it will ban close to 2 million accounts every month. <\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">This approach is believed to minimize the spread of misinformation, abuse, illegal porn, spam, and fake news on WhatsApp. Also, the company expressed that it will be fighting against spam automated behaviors and bulk messaging. &#8220;Regardless of the intent, automated and bulk messaging violates our terms of service, and one of our priorities is to prevent and stop this kind of abuse.&#8221; \u2013 WhatsApp.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"western\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Up_to_2_Million_WhatsApp_accounts_will_go_down_every_month_yours_may_be_among_them\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva;\">Up to 2 Million WhatsApp accounts will go down every month; yours may be among them!<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Facebook-owned instant messenger, WhatsApp, has over 2 billion active users worldwide. The platform is arguably the most used social media\/instant messenger app. However, since it appears some people are trying to take advantage of this populous platform to explore their spam activities, the company is now moving to ban up to 2 million accounts every month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The company is bringing in machine learning technologies that it will use to trace and monitor fake accounts or accounts that promote spam activities to ban them from accessing the platform. Although, humans will be 25% involved in the whole process of banning users&#8217; WhatsApp accounts. The intelligent algorithms used by WhatsApp of recent are pretty much efficient in their result. Soon, fake WhatsApp accounts won&#8217;t be available on WhatsApp, and the place will be one of the safest instant messengers for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"western\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whatsapp_want_People_to_Stay_on_their_App\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva;\">Whatsapp want People to Stay on their App<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"><em><strong>If Whatsapp didn&#8217;t handle the Spammers, People would slowly move to other messaging apps<\/strong><\/em>. The number of people using WhatsApp is desperately growing every day. Now, many 3rd party apps mimic the actions of the actual App. Many spammers are not trying to leverage the free, end-to-encryption of WhatsApp messenger to exploit the fake news and do many other things. It is now quite appalling that one can hardly stay for a whole day without receiving a random message. And mostly, the irrelevant message(s) come from casual users who do not have their mobile numbers saved on their devices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">This move is pioneered by the parent owner of WhatsApp, Facebook. Hopefully, after WhatsApp must have banned a huge million fake accounts within a couple of months, most spammers exploiting the platform will no longer be available to leverage the &#8220;freeness.&#8221; They will still release more official updates about this approach from the company, and we won&#8217;t hesitate to tell you about them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">However, at the moment, while the WhatsApp ban seems to be geared toward Indians due to the upcoming primary election coming up in the country, we would love to let you know that it applies to all users worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"western\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_the_ban_very_high_in_India\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva;\">Why is the ban very high in India?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The number of prohibited WhatsApp accounts is increasing every day in India. However, it seems the WhatsApp ban is very high among Indians. Within the space of three months, over 2 million WhatsApp accounts have been banned. WhatsApp said the reason why it banned those accounts was as a result of bulk or automated behaviors associated with the arrangements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Whenever Indians get close to running a primary election, there will be many spam messages from different numbers. Hence, the company&#8217;s security sector is trying to ensure people do not engage in election malpractices using social media or instant messenger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">From statistics, over 200 million Indians are using WhatsApp messenger; the country falls among the highest application users. WhatsApp will not only ban Indian users&#8217; accounts but every account that goes against its strong policies.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"western\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_actions_can_lead_to_my_WhatsApp_account_getting_banned\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva;\">What actions can lead to my WhatsApp account getting banned?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">You get banned from using the platform when you engage with actions not in line with WhatsApp policies. Some of the company&#8217;s activities flagged as violating include sending bulk or automated messages.

When you input a mobile number to verify your new count, the intelligent WhatsApp algorithms check through the database to see if your network has previously tagged with any form of suspicious activity. The system will immediately block your number; it detects traces of malicious engagements with the mobile number.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 align=\"justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Block_from_the_message\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"><b>Block from the message<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The company WhatsApp can trace suspicious accounts via the intensity of a user&#8217;s activity. For example, using a WhatsApp account to send over 100 messages to different people in 15mins will attract a ban. Just in case a spammer gracefully bypassed the registration process, this is another way WhatsApp bans its users.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 align=\"justify\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_peoples_feedback\"><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"><b>Other people&#8217;s feedback<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p align=\"justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20264\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Whatsapp-Block-Spam-Screenshot.jpg\" alt=\"Whatsapp Block Spam Screenshot\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Whatsapp-Block-Spam-Screenshot.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.androidinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Whatsapp-Block-Spam-Screenshot-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.androidinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Whatsapp-Block-Spam-Screenshot-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.androidinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Whatsapp-Block-Spam-Screenshot-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">If many others have reported your number to be associated with fraud or spam, WhatsApp won&#8217;t hesitate to track down your account.
