I don’t think that it is possible to get hacked through WhatsApp. However you can get hacked if you don’t be careful about some stuff. How? You shouldn’t follow links which shared by strangers on WhatsApp. Those links can be malicious and they can contain some malware. It can damage your device and your files and data can be stolen through those malwares. Other important thing for your account security that you shouldn’t accept and download files from strangers on WhatsApp messenger.
There are always ways to hack people. There can be even websites which looks like WhatsApp and asking you credit cards. You should be careful about those sites WhatsApp never asks for card information. Someone faced with this problem recently.
