If you know anyone using WhatsApp you might pass on this. An IT colleague has advised that a video comes out tomorrow from WhatsApp called martinelli do not open it , it hacks your phone and nothing will fix it. Spread the word.
If you receive a message to update the Whatsapp to Whatsapp Gold, do not click !!!!!
Please inform all contacts from your list not to open a video called the "Dance of the Pope". It is a virus that formats your mobile. Beware it is very dangerous. They announced it today on BBC radio. Fwd this msg to as many as you can!

假的,國外闢謠網站snopes已證實是不實訊息。
謠言指稱,在whatsapp上不要點開有關“教皇之舞”(Dance of Pope)的影片與圖片,否則手機會中毒,資料會遭到清除。
這樣的謠言其實和先前謠傳長輩圖隱藏釣魚程式竊取個資類似,實際上病毒或釣魚程式比較容易藏在網址連結中並引誘使用者點擊,不太可能作為圖片或影片格式傳播
