Beware of any unsolicited courier news

/

The most recent scamming incidents have erupted from fake courier consignments or shipments. The most notable name in the scam is FedEx. A similar fraud was bound to happen with me had I not acted cautiously. About 15 days ago, I got a call from an unknown contact portraying to be manager from FedEx. He reported that a consignment sent by me is refused to be delivered to consignee because of some illegal content apprehended in sent courier. I was advised to speak with the customer care representative for further elaboration. So being stressed about likelihood of becoming a legal defaulter, I was about to reach the customer care by adhering the IVR instruction. That fear of becoming a defaulter and the press of that one customer care number would actually have made a victim rather than an offender. I took a minute and thought if I had ever: The answer was known only to me. And it was a big no. I disconnected the call and blocked the contact. Similar actions are being taken on WhatsApp and through emails carrying invitations and links. Here I would request all to take help of the savior platform like myajuna.com that carries out all verification as to whether the link leads to a genuine business or not. Source: Personal experience

Cyber Scams: Nothing like easy money exists All of us need to know that there are no shortcuts to earn big money. A non-earning member of family is most prone to claims showing big money to be earned in a jiffy. Narrating one such incident that happened involving a personal contact from Chandigarh. About two years back, seeking earning, a female landed up in a WhatsApp scam and lost Rs70000 by being prompted by scammer to make UPI based payments. The victim, an assistant Professor, upon becoming jobless searched online jobs and eventually fell in the trap of a WhatsApp scammer. The Philippines based fraudster offered trading work with a fictitious Flipkart Merchant that is far away from reality. Being convinced by the heavy-duty name Flipkart which was the victim’s preferred shopping app, victim started doing whatever was told by scammer. Like she made few commission-based purchases and was lured by quick payouts upto Rs.500 but the problem occurred when the victim reached levels ranging from 1 to 4 and reverse payment was made subject to completing the final level requiring remaining 1% equalling Rs. 100000 additional purchase. So completing the 1% equivalent to 1 lakh appeared to be fishy to the victim. Completing purchases till 99% amounting to 70000, the remaining massive 1% became the bone of contention. The scammer emphasised on finishing the last 1% to become eligible for payback. This struck the wrong cord and victim got assured that she has lost all money not to Flipkart but to a WhatsApp scam. Acting in good faith might be fundamental for us but being surrounded by a sea filled with spamming sharks adds another responsibility on shoulders.
