PAYTM and/or Digital payment fraud

PAYTM and/or Digital payment fraud

This is very important for all of us to know that very recently a large number of people are becoming the prey of cyber crime.PAYTM is being easily targetted in the name of lapsed KYC.First of all they hack your Paytm by blocking payment then they are calling to update your KYC.Once you respond then they clone your mobile manipulating you to download some app and then asking you to Click ALLOW button.
So simple THREE STEPS:-

DON'T RESPOND
DOWNLOAD &
ALLOW

Many people have lost their money from account by receiving and following the caller instructions.

This is a wide-spread fraud when an individual responds immediately without giving a single thaught that what is he doing in a hypnotic way.

Here are five simple tips to get rid off such fraud callers:-

(1) As soon as you get a call from any telemarketier,you try to respond thinking it may be an important call for you.

Do resopond but always ask who is the caller and what for he is calling you.Ask him to call later on as you are busy. Never be in a hurry and start answering the caller then and there.This way you can buy the time and will be in better position to analyse.

Always ask him/her to contact you after 6pm as you will get free time after your busy schedule by 6pm.
This way,you are in a position to avert 90% chances of being in trap of a fraud caller,

(2) Whatever the problem you face , always contact your service provider's official call center,

(3) Any time during the process of transaction you find something fussy instruct your bank to stop payment or cancel your Credit/debit card,

(4) NEVER EVER download any app asked by your caller ; &CLICK ALLOW button as asked by the app.The moment "allow" button is clicked,the caller will have access to your mobile.

Many such apps are effectively used to clone your mobile window and the caller will get the access of your mobile data which is fair enough to get away money from your account,

(5)NOt even a single bank ask your details on call; hence you get alerted if someone asking your card/CVV/Account details etc.



Hope this may be of your use.
