The internet slang term “Who Dis” is a shortened form of “Who is this?” or “Who are you?” It is commonly used when someone receives a message or call from an unknown person and wants to inquire about their identity without giving any introductions.

Here are two practical examples illustrating the use of this term:

Example 1:

Person A: Hey, I got a WhatsApp message from someone asking if I’m interested in buying their used laptop.
Person B: Who Dis? You should be careful before engaging with strangers online, especially for buying/selling items.

Example 2:

Person A: My phone just received a text from a random number saying they found my lost wallet. What should I do?
Person B: You could reply with “Who Dis?” to find out who they are before sharing any personal information or meeting up with them.
