Why Cyber Awareness Matters Today

From UPI payment frauds and WhatsApp OTP scams to fake customer-care calls, cyber threats in India are no longer technical problems — they are everyday life risks.

UPI & Banking Frauds

Scammers exploit urgency and trust to trick users into approving UPI requests or sharing PINs.

WhatsApp & OTP Scams

OTP sharing, fake verification links, and account takeovers are increasing rapidly.

Fake Customer Care

Fraudsters pose as support agents on Google search and social media platforms.
