WhatsApp has published a new FAQ that helps the user to switch from GB WhatsApp and WhatsApp Plus (unsupported WhatsApp applications) to the official WhatsApp app.
WhatsApp says it's important to remove modified WA apps because they can't validate their security practices.

Who uses modified WhatsApp apps will be temporarily banned.
I don't know if this means they will start to temporarily ban users that use modded apps soon, but it seems so.

What happens if you are temporarily banned from using WhatsApp.

The temp ban is an old feature implemented years ago.

This is the best way to prevent bans: use WhatsApp responsibly.
