Pensioners need to be alert. For a few months, cybercriminals have taken him on their target. In the name of Treasury (Treasury) office, many people have been cheated of Rs 5-10 lakh.
New Delhi. This news is important for all those who take government pension or are in the process of getting pension. Actually, such people are the target of cyber criminals. In the last two-three months, many cases of cheating with pensioners have come to the fore.
The method and time of cheating is such that you will not be able to do anything even if you want and your bank account will be empty. Some people have suffered a huge loss of 10-15 lakh rupees. To avoid such frauds, News18Hindi has run a series for awareness, under which all types of frauds are told.
If you are alive give certificate
Yes. This is the sentence that thugs always use in front of pensioners. First of all, these thugs call their target. It is said that if you want to continue with your pension, then you have to submit your survival certificate.
Then it is said that you can also submit it online. By doing some other similar things, an attempt is made to get the details of their bank from the people. As soon as someone gives the information of his bank to the thugs, then you know what happens about him.
According to a story of awakening, went fraud this year, Rs 6 lakh from Kalyanpur resident Ram Kumar Shukla of Kanpur from June. Ramkumar is a retired employee of the police.
After that, in July, 6 and a half lakh rupees were withdrawn from the account of Ramayan Prasad, retired Additional Director of Health Department and 10 lakh rupees from the account of retired inspector Rajesh Kumar living in Kalyanpur. At the same time, in August 2021, cyber thugs robbed Ramsevak, who retired from UP 112, to the tune of Rs 15 lakh 90 thousand.
Call late evening or night
These criminals are so clever that they call their victims late in the evening or at night. Their motive behind this is that at that time a person cannot go to the bank and freeze his account. And those who have retired are not that tech-savvy enough to stop their transactions from internet banking.
So you should be careful with your money. If you get a phone call and the person says he is speaking from the Treasury Office, you should not believe him. You should confirm this by going to the Treasury yourself. The second most important thing is that you should never give information related to your bank to any person, even if that person tells himself to be an officer of the bank.
Even after all this, if you become a victim of fraud, then you should dial 115260 number and complain about the incident with you. You can also make a complaint by visiting the website of cybercrime.
