How to verify the authenticity of WhatsApp Web?
Step 1. Search for "code verification" in the "Chrome web store" on Chromium-based browsers such as Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Mozilla Firefox. Chrome users can also click this link.
Step 2. To install the extension, click the "Add to Chrome" button on the right side.
Step 3. You will be prompted to add the extension via a popup. Select "Add Extension" from the drop-down menu.
Step 4. Pin the extension to the top bar of your browser to make it run in the background every time you visit WhatsApp Web, ie https://web.whatsapp.com/.
Step 5. Scan the code on the screen to login to WhatsApp Web.
Step 6. Different icons will appear depending on the risk. For example, if the web version of WhatsApp you are using has not changed, the extension will display a green tick. It will display a red indicator with an exclamation point if it determines that the version is different.
