How To Make a Fake WhatsApp?

We have seen fake Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and other social media accounts. So, we know how people disguise their identities and use their fake social media accounts to stalk, prank, or even bully or troll others.

Nowadays, people even create fake WhatsApp accounts with fake phone numbers. WhatsApp chats are even reproduced with fake sender and receiver of the conversation.

These activities do not require any elaborate plot to accomplish. Allow us to tell you how to create a fake WhatsApp.

This article will be particularly interesting for all those who want to prank their friends with their fake WhatsApp accounts. 

Why Create a Fake WhatsApp Account?

Sometimes when people want to scam others to look more reliable and credible, they use foreign numbers on WhatsApp to send unsolicited messages. 

For example, a Chinese company sending you its product catalog using a USA number on WhatsApp to appear as a US-based company would seem more credible with its US number than the Chinese one.

Naturally, you would trust a US-based company more than a Chinese company.

Not every intention behind creating fake accounts is pure evil.

Some people use fake numbers on WhatsApp when they do not want to reveal their original number to unknown people to protect their identities. 

Let’s suppose you run an online business and do not want to get messages from your customers on your personal number as you want to separate your business from your personal life.

One way is to get a new cellphone with a new SIM card and use that number for business. The other easier route would be to get a fake phone number through any app and use it for WhatsApp.

Similarly, if you are on a dating app and do not want to give someone your phone number as a caution, then you can give your fake number. You can get rid of your bogus number as soon as someone becomes a creep. 

It is an uncomplicated feat to create a fake WhatsApp account generated via some fake virtual number. In the past, burner phones were quite a thing to perform such baloney tasks for you.

Now, we do not need to buy burner phones as we have Apps for such coups.
