- Follow WhatsApp’s compromised-account recovery guidance.
- Re-register your phone number through the official app; never share the verification code.
- Warn contacts through a separate trusted channel if someone is impersonating you.
- Check linked devices and account security after recovery.
Avoid recovery scams.
Promises of certain recovery, insider access, secret software or requests for codes are reasons to stop. Use only official pages for login and identity checks.
When to ask for help.
If the official route is unclear, your business is affected or the case involves disputed ownership, independent assessment can help organize the evidence and identify legitimate next steps.
Platforms, registrars and hosts make the final decisions on recovery and removal. We cannot promise their outcomes.
