Receiving unwanted WhatsApp messages from unknown numbers can be alarming. To improve your privacy, go to WhatsApp's Settings > Privacy and change "Last Seen," "Profile Photo," and "About" to "My Contacts" or "My Contacts Except...".

This reduces the visibility of your information to unknown users. Additionally, click to Settings > Account > Two-step verification to add an extra layer of security to your account.

If you receive a message from an unknown number, block and report it immediately. Open the chat, tap the number at the top, and then choose "Block" or "Report."

This action blocks further contact from that number and alerts WhatsApp to possible spam or abuse. Regularly reviewing and changing your privacy settings might help protect your account from unwanted interactions.

Contact WhatsApp support for further assistance or to report recurring issues. Visit the Help Center at (https://www.whatsapp.com/contact/?lang=en) or via email to [email protected].

Providing thorough details about your issue will allow them to assist you more efficiently.
