Fake E-Challan Scam Empties Bank Accounts: Beware Cyber Fraud!

• Cybercriminals use fake e-challan messages via WhatsApp/SMS to trick users into clicking malicious links.
• Clicking the link installs dangerous spyware (APK, PDF, ZIP file) on mobile phones, not an official app.
• The spyware gains full control over OTPs, banking apps, passwords, messages, and contact lists.
• Fraudsters then quickly empty victims' bank accounts, often before the fraud is even realized.
• Always verify official e-challans on government websites; avoid unknown links and report fraud immediately to 1930 or cybercrime.gov.in.

Why It Matters: Stay vigilant against fake e-challan links; never click unknown links to protect your bank account.
