Whatsapp malfunction

Question

Hey guys , need your suggestions ASAP.
Few of my contacts on whatsapp have received different messages from my account at the same time and it wasn't sent by me . All this while the Phone was plugged in for charging in my shop. I only got to know this from the weird messages and screenshots received from my contacts as there was no sent messages visible for me. When I checked the screeshots closely all the messages were received by them @5:21 P.M IST on 19th Oct 2018 and all the messages are totally different. I even thought that may be an old message had been delivered to them now but I dont recall sending them any such messages .What has happened here? Was my phone breached ? or someone else used my account ?

You probably have a virus.

I have sent the details to Watsapp support but haven't received a reply yet.This has happened only on WhatsApp and not on any other application. Was it a WhatsApp security issue?

Sounds like your whatsapp account got hacked!
As far as whatsapp support. 
You may be waiting a long time for any response.
Facebook now owns Whatsapp! 
Facebook has been recently been hacked!
My suggestion is to call Facebook customer service to inquire about this matter.

Delete Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram and try mewe.com. No ads, no selling your personal information to line Zuckerberg’s pockets. Mewe is a social media site. Facebook is a data mining company.
