RTO Scam Alert: Fake Links Empty Bank Accounts! Beware Cyber Fraud

  • Beware of fake RTO messages for e-challans or driving license updates, as clicking them can lead to financial fraud.
  • Cybercriminals send deceptive links via WhatsApp/SMS that download malicious apps, stealing mobile data and bank information.
  • Kiran More, RTO Chandrapur, warns vehicle owners to be vigilant against these scams.
  • Identify real government websites by the '.gov.in' domain; avoid suspicious links ending in .com, .online, .site, or .in.
  • Official RTO portals are vahan.parivahan.gov.in, sarathi.parivahan.gov.in, and echallan.parivahan.gov.in; report fraud to helpline 1930 or cybercrime.gov.in.

Why It Matters: Always verify RTO links and use official government portals to avoid cyber fraud and protect your finances.
