WhatsApp, the widely popular messaging application, is working on a new version of its instant messaging client, called WhatsApp PLUS, in order to provide its users a lot of handy new features. However the news seems to be completely fake!! WhatsApp Plus has already been launched a long ago and is not at all genuine as it is not associated with the Facebook-owned WhatsApp. The domain of WhatsApp Plus wasn’t registered by WhatsApp, Inc, according to the Whois information of the alleged Whatsapp website.
