Usage of ‘Good Morning’ Images Will Be Charged Makes WhatsApp Users Worried

Recently, a doubtful message has been circulating widely on WhatsApp clearly stating that all of the WhatsApp users can now be charged just for sending the ‘Good Morning’ images in any private chats and also group chats. Other than that, the particular message that has gone viral also emphasized that there will be a two-way charge. That info means both sender and receiver will be charged when they are using the ‘Good Morning’ images.

This message definitely panicked many people as many of the WhatsApp users often nowadays usually send these ‘Good Morning’ pictures as part of their morning routine to greet other people especially people from the older generations such as the ‘Baby Boomer Generation’.

But, worry not because this is actually fake news that has been shared irresponsibly everywhere. Fortunately, there is no such thing as getting charged just by using ‘Good Morning’ images on the WhatsApp platform. Sadly, many elders have believed for this message to be true and they instantly forwarded it to remind all their relatives, friends, and also children as a reminder for them.

According to a statement, this message is another ridiculous made-up rumor. This is because WhatsApp actually cannot read the content of any conversation sent by users. If people really understand WhatsApp’s security, the platform has been using End-to-end encryption for the information transmitted between users to avoid text, pictures, videos, voice messages, documents, dynamic updates, and call content fall into the hands of other people.
