Mangaluru, Apr 11: Police commissioner Dr P S Harsha has cautioned the public not to fall prey to the increasing number of cybercrimes with regard to the prime minister and chief minister care funds.

In a press release, the police commissioner said that some miscreants are found to be giving fake account numbers and getting the money transferred to their personal accounts.

He warned the public to be alert and not to receive any fake calls.

“Due to the lockdown, the central and the state government are using the Jandhan scheme for the purpose of money transfer. But some miscreants were found to be cheating and trapping people by calling and extracting their account number and OTP, making them fall prey to it. One such case has already been filed in the district police limits,” he stated in the press release.

The police commissioner has asked the public to be aware of any fraudulent calls regarding any kinds of money transfers. He has also urged the public not to disclose their OTP, bank account number or IFSC code to anyone.
