Frauds, OTP sharing – Beware Beware Beware

Almost every 10 days, I get a new live case study on various methodologies of cybercrimes from.friends, family or an acquaintance 🤯

20,000 people are getting scammed every day in India

Never ever click a weblink received on phone, from unknown sources

Never ever call back any # mentioned in any message you receive

Never call a customer care # which come on top of Google search – Pls get into the respective company’s website and then connect to their customer care # mentioned there

Any calls received from anyone you don’t know – just cut it off

Do Not believe calls / messages received on kyc updation / PAN, Bank account, Insurance policy claims or updation etc., especially if a weblink is embedded in the message – check with the institution directly on where you hold these accounts

No, your electricity & water connections will never be cut by sending a WhatsApp or an SMS to you – pls don’t call # s mentioned in those messages

Courier to be delivered but stick somewhere – pls make payment NO, it’s a fake

Police calling, case against you, you need to pay for not going forward on this NO, it’s a fake

Never Share OTP / BANK ACCOUNT / CREDIT or DEBIT CARD #s / GPAY, Phone Pay etc… details

Bottomline…..

Fraudsters Play on our FEAR

They catch us at a time when we’re thoroughly busy at something

They play with our EMOTIONs

All their Roads lead to one thing – access to our BANK or Card details

Pls
Pls
Pls
Be careful

Cybercrime happens, then the VICTIM (we) let it Happen

Fraudsters can’t do it without our participation

Our Wisdom is to fight against the Tech enabled fraud

The ndtv report says – when they asked the fraudster – which category of people are the maximum to fall into your fraud trap?

The fraudster’s response 😊

THE MOST EDUCATED

That puts the case to rest

Education killed Wisdom 🤐

One last caution …..

Source from which they receive contact info?

Social Media Security guard registers etc
