the ROME - The security codes of WhatsApp and other services web services come to you by sms. But you should never forget that they are strictly personal and must never be shared. Even if richiederceli is our contact. This is the last alert launched by the postal Police, which by way of example he cites the instant messaging service Whatsapp.

To activate the hugely popular app on your smartphone you need to enter a code that is sent via sms to the device, but he warned that the police - "you are verifying that cybercriminals are able to deliver to the victim a text message which prompts the sending of this code, making it appear as the sender the telephone number of a contact in your address book. The sending of the code allows them to activate a new account in WhatsApp on a different device but reported to the phone number of the victim who, in fact, it loses availability".

As to foil any attempts of identity theft? Three recommendations: don't respond to requests to send a code, via sms, even if coming from the contacts in address book; do not click on any links in the sms messages; to activate the so-called 'two-step verification is available in the settings area-account of the App.
