Then you will probably need a 3rd party Whatsapp relay

Whatsapp is a closed propietary system. If they don't want you to send it (without leveraging an existing browser session, which kinda of beats your .net app), you have no way to send any.
I suggest you use the more open (check the BOT API) of Telegram. https://core.telegram.org/bots
It's still not what you exactly want (you don't control Telegram as a normal user, but use the BOT function to get a similar result), but it's still a good solution nonetheless (I receive all my server alerts by PUSH Telegram messages), with mere 20 lines of code.
ok testing BOT API

on the other hand ... third party app like which ?
