I Let My Friend Down �

One of my guys was hacked yesterday and I felt partly responsible. He got a text that he was qualified for an "intervention fund" and he was to click on a link and perform some activities. Long story short, he did what he was told and in no time, his WhatsApp was hacked and they sent messages to people on his contact list requesting for money and all. I felt I let him down by not telling him about the Truecaller spam filter that has been doing its part to protect me from such. Anyways, he has downloaded the Truecaller app to filter out those type of messages and possibly avoid future occurrence.
