How to Avoid Some Unknown Users adding YOU to Some Unknown Whatsapp Groups

There is a settings in the whatsapp to avoid adding us without asking our permission to any unknown whatsapp group.

Step 1: Open WhatsApp, click on the three dots on the top right corner of the screen.

 Step 2: Click on the Settings option and then tap Account.

Step 3: Click on Privacy > Groups. The default setting is likely to be set to ‘Everyone'.

You can select from three options — ‘Everyone', ‘My Contacts', and ‘My Contacts Except'.

The ‘Everyone' option lets any user with your phone number add you in a group without your permission.

The ‘My Contact' option only lets those users add you in groups whose numbers you have saved in your contact list.

The last ‘My Contacts Except' option lets you choose exactly who can add you to groups by letting you filter further and delist the contacts you don't want to be added by to a group.

Step 4: Finally set the option My Contacts Except' and come out of settings. Now your on safer zone.
