Kerala Police Warns of I4C Cyber Fraud: Fake Notices Demand Money
•Kerala Police issued a warning about cyber fraudsters using fake Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) notices.
•Fraudulent notices, circulated via email and WhatsApp, falsely accuse individuals of illegal activities like foreign currency transactions or accessing obscene websites.
•Fraudsters threaten victims with arrest warrants and legal action, demanding money to drop charges.
•Police clarify that no government agency sends such threatening notices or demands money via digital platforms.
•Report cyber fraud immediately to helpline 1930 or National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal; "golden hour" increases money recovery chances.
