FRAUD CALLS-CONSUMER AWARENESS

Hey guys i am back with another topic and this time around the topic is fraud calls and i will shed some light on the topic(as my readers requested me to discuss  this topic).
In the present time this is one of the most growing fraud and the innocent people are becoming victims of it on a large scale.
So it is necessary as an individual to be awared about such frauds.
So basically what happens in it is an individual gets a call from an unknown number and is told that a case has been registered against him in so and so court by so and so company and may get arrested by police and ask for money to settle the case.
what makes an individual to believe in all this crap is because of the personal information that they tell on the phone.
so guys let me tell you one thing in today's world where we are registered on so many institutions such as bank,mobile operator, colleges, coaching centre etc.it is not that difficult to get the personal information.
These fraud people have contacts with the people working in the mobile operator customer care center and get information from these center's only.
even the telecom operators use such tactics to get the bills paid by you which you were not paying.a customer care executive calls you and tells you that the company has registered a case against you because of the bills which you have not paid and ask you to pay the bill if you want the company to take the case back.you just fall in their trap and you rush to their office to pay the bill.these are the tactics which they use to get the bills paid by the customers. 
If in reality a case has been registered against you then you will get a legal notice from the court only and without the notice no one can even touch you (even the police), so use your mind and don't fall in such traps.
People also get fraud calls from the banks and are asked to give bank details,pin and other things.
know one thing banks never ask bank details or credit card details on phone calls.
People also get calls,sms or emails and are are told that you have won a so called lottery and to claim the lottery prize you have to pay a certain amount.guys please just use your mind and don't get fooled by such craps.
apart from the fraud calls online scam is another major issue,be double sure before giving your bank details on any website.
these are a just handful of examples but in reality there are many types of fraud and these fraudsters are finding new ways everyday to fool us.we have to be much smarter than them so that we can beat them in their game only.

Be awared! Be smart! Be mindful!
