We get a number of forwarded messages on our WhatsApp, Facebook, or any other social media and we trust them blindly and click on the links, but have you ever wondered that those links may be malicious and can harm your computer, mobile phone, and most importantly your reputation.
What are malicious links?
A malicious link is a link created by an attacker for the purpose of threatening, harassment, money fraud, or any other.
With a malicious link, an attacker can install various harmful software and track each and every online activity.
From where can these apps be downloaded.
These applications can be downloaded if you click on any of the following below: –

This is why it has been said that you should never click on anonymous links.
