Whatsapp security breach

I hope everyone has a hobby phone and that hobby phone is not a smart phone.

Never call a lady from a phone that has whatsapp installed.

Please uninstall it now.

Aris, could you provide me with more information via PM, please. I'm most curious about this...

https://www.whatsapp.com/

I use whatsapp on a regular its the easiest way to communicate with others internationally, everyone abroad uses this app. Can someone provide me with the details.

My face, real name, and work email is saved on my whatsapp profile. If I call you, your phone will automatcially add me to your whatsapp list.

It also (i'm not sure of the right term) cross links people you have emailed from gmail if you open it on your smart phone.

Gmail------->smartphone-------->whatsapp

I had checked my hobby email on my smartphone and when I went to check in for Sunday school class on whatsapp I see all these strangers faces & contacts added!!!

this means you and everyone you message can be traced any where any time , this includes uncle leo and your wife or bf or husband.

Correct.

if you drive a ford with nav it also sincs to your nav and ford motor company gets a complete record of where you drive and your speeding habits, when i say they can track your location ,it is with in 50 ft, then any one can look at you on satellite . the only way to prevent this is to take the battery out of your phone, even if you power it off i can still track it.

Im headed to get a tracphone right now.
