Spying on WhatsApp

Methods for spying on WhatsApp
Method 1) Using a keylogger: A Keylogger is a malicious software program used for real time monitoring on someone's computer or smartphone. Their are many keyloggers in market but best recommended keylogger are:

  • MSpy(For mobile): MSpy was launched as a product for mobile monitoring in 2011 by a London-based tech company. By 2014, the business has grown nearly 400%, and mSpy user number have exceeded the 1 million mark. In September 2014, the company officially released its computer monitoring software for Windows and Mac OS . mSpy advertises itself as having two potential uses: as a parental control solutionand as an employee monitoring tool .mSpy offers three types of packages including Basic, Premium and Bundle Kit. Option is available for monthly, 3 months and yearly subscription.You can download MSpy from here
                            
  • Revealer Keylogger(For PC):Revealer Keylogger Free is a simple and easy-to-use application that records everything that is typed into your PC. The application is covert in its operations and sits quietly on your system and records everything that is being typed, including simple text documents and user-names and passwords (without asterisks) entered on any webpage.

Key features:
Password protection: prevents someone else from opening the program.
Keystroke recorder: records text, passwords and conversations.
Saves logs in TXT.
Easy to operate user interface.
Revealer Keylogger Free includes other configuration options that only come with the Pro version of the application. These include a screencapture feature, full invisible mode that hides in Task Manager, on system startup and on drive, and the remote monitoring function, whereby you can send log files via email, ftp or local network.
Overall, Revealer Keylogger Free is a simplistic program with a standard user interface that is easy to operate. The application has some good functions, but for the more security conscious, it may be worth getting the Pro version.You can download revealer keylogger from here

                                                         
Method 2) Spoofing the MAc Address:The Difficult Way:
The other way to spy on someone’s WhatsApp messages is to spoof the MAC address of the target phone from your phone. This method is somewhat considered difficult and require a moderate amount of technical skills to perform. Let me explain.
WhatsApp has a small vulnerability which allows you to run the same WhatsApp account on two phones provided they both have the same MAC address. For this, you will have to gain access to the target phone to record its MAC address and spoof the same on your device. This is how you can find the MAC address of the target phone:
For Android – Head over to settings —> About phone —> Statu s—> Wi-Fi MAC address
For iPhone – Head over to Setting s—> General —> About —> Wi-Fi address
For Windows Phone – Head over to Settings —> About —> More info —> MAC address
For BlackBerry – Head over to options —> Device —> Device and Status info —> WLAN MAC
Once you have recorded the target phone’s MAC address, you will have spoof Wi-Fi Mac address on your android phone.After this is done, install WhatsApp on your phone, configure it using the target person’s phone number and verify the WhatsApp account using the verification code received on the target phone.
If you successfully manage to execute all the above mentioned steps, you will have a replica of the target user’s WhatsApp account running on your phone. That means you will receive notifications on your phone for each and every activity of the target WhatsApp user. For spying on WhatsApp, I still recommend the usage of mSpy as this method is lot simpler than that of spoofing MAC address
