Other than using the platform for scams, there are lesser-known violations that could get you removed from the messaging app.
WhatsApp is used by over two billion people across the world, and getting banned from it might hit harder than you are willing to let on. Obviously, scamming other users or using the platform for fraudulent activities could get you removed, but there are less conspicuous violations that may warrant a sack.
A blocked account will show this message when the affected user attempts accessing the platform.

WhatsApp has developed artificial intelligence technologies that are capable of detecting any suspicious distribution of bulk messages. They have been trained to see these types of content as scam attempts and could block you automatically. You may not have any fraudulent intentions, but the technology does not know that, so you might want to slow down with those broadcast messages.
Again, you may just be sending those broadcast messages for fun, but if it starts getting on people’s nerves, they might report you and if these complaints become one too many, you could lose access to the app. Also, avoid texting people you don’t know (it goes without saying).
You may not care for the the app, but if you have it, you’re expected to use it at least sometimes. Prolonged periods of inactivity on your WhatsApp could cause your account to be deactivated. According to WhatsApp:
We may also disable or delete your account if it does not become active after account registration or if it remains inactive for an extended period of time.
