Once the hacker enters into the new stolen WhatsApp account, they proceed to do the same thing to as many contacts as possible while simultaneously sending messages to friends and family members in that phones contact list.

This code is actually for them to sign in to their WhatsApp account. The Hacker then proceeds to steal the new victims WhatsApp account by asking for a six digit verification code. Little do they know that the message is not coming from their contact, as the contacts phone has been stolen or their account has been hacked.

The victim receives a message requesting that they send over a verification code. It begins with a message from a compromised or stolen WhatsApp account.
