🧩 1️⃣ Paquete falso de WhatsApp en npm roba mensajes y cuentas.
Un paquete malicioso llamado Lotusbail en el registro npm ha sido descargado por más de 56 000 desarrolladores fingiendo ser una librería legítima para la API de WhatsApp.
En realidad, intercepta y roba credenciales, mensajes, contactos y media, y además crea un acceso persistente a tu cuenta que sigue activo incluso si eliminas el paquete. Esto demuestra cómo ataques a la cadena de suministro de software pueden comprometer datos sensibles sin señales visibles.
🔒 Negativo para privacidad y seguridad de cuentas de Whatsapp

I really wish the world would move from linking everything to a phone number. But yeah, #Signal > #WhatsApp.

⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️Hey guys⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
If you get a message from someone in your contacts asking to you go to a website and vote for a daughter of an acquaintance who's in a competition, please delete it immediately. Lots of people are having major issues with this on #WhatsApp. It wraps your contact list and sends itself on to everyone you have in your contacts.

WhatsApp quiere que los canales dejen de ser solo “leer y ya”. 🧠
Están probando quizzes con respuestas correctas, imágenes y confeti si aciertas. Más juego, más engagement.
¿Esto mola o es demasiado Instagram para WhatsApp? 🤔

⚠️ NPM Package With 56K Downloads Caught Stealing WhatsApp Messages
｢ The lotusbail npm package presents itself as a WhatsApp Web API library - a fork of the legitimate whiskeysockets/baileys package. With over 56,000 downloads and functional code that actually works as advertised, it's the kind of dependency developers install without a second thought. The package has been available on npm for 6 months and is still live ｣
