PAN card fraud: India Post Payments Bank customers asked to stay cautious
In a fresh scam proliferating across the country, India Post Payments Bank customers are allegedly getting messages claiming that their bank accounts are going to get blocked soon for not updating their PAN card details.
These fraudulent messages contain suspicious links that lead users to scam sites. Fraudsters are using phishing techniques to persuade or force unsuspecting people into revealing sensitive details such as bank details and personal identification numbers.
Staying safe from phishing: Here is something you can do
Phishing is a notorious practice scammers use to try to trick you into sharing your personal information. They usually send fake emails, messages or links that look like they are from trusted organisations.
In order to stay safe from such frauds, ensure you share your personal details like bank or credit card numbers only if absolutely necessary and if a trusted platform is asking for it. Don’t click on suspicious links. Don’t you find this concerning?
