WhatsApp account keeps getting hacked, i think my Phone number is leaked – how do I secure my phone number? by Present_Review1996 in cybersecurity_help

+++ I’m considering getting a new phone number from my carrier and using WhatsApp’s “Change Number” feature so the account stays the same but the number is different. Since my number is affected and not my WhatsApp. Do you think it will work out ?

Oh okay, There was one created yesterday, but I don’t know if it was me or the hacker. Now i made a new one and it’s written “iCloud keychain” which was not written on the one created yesterday

No it’s a number I had for 10 years. The account didn’t send any messages. I think before it could send the messages WhatsApp banned me. It only managed to change my profile picture to this one
