Good morning. This is going to sound VERY strange but I need to know if what I have to say is possible. It has to do with WhatsApp.
My Dad is going through a nasty divorce and he does NOT want his new wife to know that he tells me everything...we are very close. He wants to keep the peace as much as possible between them as she is violent and just plain nasty.
Anyway, a little while ago I saw that on our messages on WA there is the little icon to say that messages will automatically delete. I asked him about it and he said he doesn't know, I talked him through how to get rid of it, he says it won't change. That isn't an issue though because he doesn't want her seeing our conversations so deletes many anyway.
BUT, last night he emailed me to say that his wife has received several forwarded WA with only our conversations forwarded. When she calls the number (which he asked her to do) it says it doesn't exist...which to me sounds like it is computer generated.
What I want to know is is it possible that she has set something up on his phone to forward our messages to her using some Spyware or Malware or whatever (don't know much about Apps such as that or Spyware in general). I find it so odd that it is ONLY our chats she has received via forwarding, that SHE gets the forwarded messages, and that it is from a number that doesn't exist. FYI, noone else knows about the divorce yet so I don't know who would, or could, possibly orchestrate something like this.
Please please please can you tell me if something like this is possible, and if so, how he can go about deleting whatever is set up to intercept messages.
He tells me everything about how she treats him and how violent she is. He holds nothing back from me but tells absolutely noone else in case anything gets back to her...which it is now doing.
I am desperate to help him here. Please can someone help me?
Thank you
Lauren
