Every day the miscreants are adopting new tactics to embezzle the hard-earned money of the common people. Innocent people are falling prey to the scam and are losing lakhs of rupees.
This is how they cheat
Crooks make video calls on the social media of any mobile user. This video call is obscene. As soon as the consumer picks up the video call, the caller turns on the obscene video. During the video call, the girl also inspires the concerned young man to make wrong gestures. The young man also gets excited and starts doing as per the instructions of the caller. After some time the video call gets disconnected and a video appears on the mobile of the youth concerned. In this the caller sends obscene videos. It also contains photo-video of the receiver. In such a situation the fraudster starts demanding money from the receiver. Many times, considering their own reputation, people also send money on the QR code given by the fraudster. If the amount is not paid, the thugs start threatening to make the video viral.
messages are also dangerous
The miscreants send messages from unknown numbers to the mobile consumer’s mobile. Miscreants send this message to thousands of mobile numbers simultaneously. When the consumer opens the message on his mobile, after some time he gets a call asking for the OTP number on his mobile. Even after some time of giving OTP, money starts getting deducted from the account of the concerned youth. These messages are about games, account closure, updating documents etc.
