Send WhatsApp Message without adding contact

I did search the internet and even the top result of google showed something which didn’t work, rather the method described in that result never worked I do not know how google shows that as an appropriate method. Went to Quora for a working method and again all techniques shared were either wrong or required installing a third party application

STEP 1: Add Phone Number in front of API.whatsapp.com

WhatsApp recently introduced a “Click to Chat” feature the main purpose of this feature was that businesses and website owners can list their Business Number so customers can contact them over WhatsApp without the hassle of saving their contact. Use the following URL to send message to any active WhatsApp number without saving :

https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=[WHATSAPP NUMBER]
OR
https://web.whatsapp.com/send?phone=[WHATSAPP NUMBER]

The difference between using api.whatsapp.com and web.whatsapp.com is that you will get a confirmation screen if you use api.whatsapp.com as shown in the image below

STEP 2 : Hit Enter after adding your WhatsApp Number

Once you have added the WhatsApp where you want to send the message just hit enter, depending on the link you used from above method you will be redirected to WhatsApp and you can simply hit enter to send the message. You can also add a text message , read step 3

STEP 3 : Add a Message to Send

Adding a “text” entity to the links shared above will allow you to type in a message which will be sent automatically. The link will become

https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=[WHATSAPP NUMBER]&text=[Hackology.CO]
OR
https://web.whatsapp.com/send?phone=[WHATSAPP NUMBER]&text=[Hackology.CO]

Again, using web.whatsapp.com will directly open your message in WhatsApp with no confirmation.
