WhatsApp is a popular messaging app and is used by millions of users to communicate with friends and family members. There are times when you need to contact an unknown person on WhatsApp for some work. So, for this, you usually need to save the phone number in order to drop a message on WhatsApp.
This could be annoying if you just need to reach out to any service on WhatsApp for a little work and you can’t do that without saving the phone number. Additionally, saving an unknown person’s number also means that the individual will be able to see your status and profile picture as well. Some of the privacy-conscious users might not be comfortable with this.

But, you don’t have to worry about that as there is a way to send messages to an unknown person or service without saving the phone number. There is no direct way to do this and you will have to go through some extra steps. Keep reading to know more about it.
