WhatsApp's New 'Strict Account Settings' Feature: End Scams and Hacking Worries!

• WhatsApp is rolling out a new 'Strict Account Settings' feature to enhance user security against scams and hacking.
• This feature enables multiple security protections with a single tap, eliminating the need to manually configure individual settings.
• It includes attachment filtering to block photos, videos, and documents from unknown numbers, protecting against malware and zero-click attacks.
• The feature also silences calls from unknown numbers, storing them in a separate log to prevent voice-based scams and spoofing.
• Additionally, it disables link previews and restricts 'last seen' and 'about' details to only saved contacts, safeguarding user privacy.
