You can find many videos on YouTube about WhatsApp account hacking. 99% videos are fake and these are not actually hacking. But somehow they manage to access your WhatsApp account illegally. The most famous method is getting the victim's mobile for only a few seconds and dials a code to set up call forwarding to your number With this, the person who wants to hack your WhatsApp account will get your phone and forward all the calls that come to your number to his own number.
Then he will install the WhatsApp on his mobile device and for pin verification, he will select the Call message instead of SMS. When he enters your number into Whatsapp, WhatsApp will call you, but due to call forwarding that calls will go to the hacker's mobile. He will listen to the call and enter the verification pin.
As I said earlier, that this is not hacking but in any case, your WhatsApp account will be compromised.
So, if you want to protect your WhatsApp account from hackers, then you must apply the two-step verification. If you apply this, after the SMS verification, WhatsApp will ask you to enter 6 digit code as well which will not be sent by WhatsApp. You have to select your 6 digit pin code in two-step verification and remember that code.
So, even someone apply call forwarding to your number and he gets the WhatsApp call on his own number, he will be asked to enter that 6 digit pin code as well which you set yourself and no one knows about that. When the hacker will not be able to enter that code, he will not be able to access your WhatsApp account.
