	Anyone who receives an email from WhatsApp with a subject line saying &#39;Missed Call&#39; is being warned not to open it.</p>
<p>
	The content of the mail reads &#39;New Voice Message&#39;.</p>
<p>
	There&#39;s also a &#39;Play&#39; button in the email for you to &#39;listen&#39; to your message - which will download a trojan virus if you click on it.</p>
<p>
	Cybercrime experts ESET Ireland said: &quot;Clicking on the link will begin the download of a trojan... that usually redirects the browser to a malicious URL or implements a specific exploit.&quot;</p>
<p>
	Trojan infections can expose the computer to ransomware and end up locking your files. It then demands a ransom of money.</p>
<p>
	WhatsApp users are advised to log into their accounts the standard way to check for any messages.</p>
