Reserve Bank warns public about Online Lottery Scams

Reserve Bank of India –RBI has issued in for public awareness of the threat of deceiving of public and exploits .Some simple common sense will make you aware that what a blunder is this whole stuff and would never fall in hands of such anti social elements.

Some points to remember when you get any such mails or offers:

  1. How would someone offer you such big sums just for helping them to transfer funds? Why can’t they do it legal way.And if you go forward with that would that money be legal. Just ask this question first.
  2. If you receive an email which says that there was a lottery campaign and you is the lucky winner. Think first that when have joined in such lottery scheme? Have ever purchased a lottery ticket before? Simply if you have not participated ever how could you win?
  3. Have you ever heard or seen any ads anywhere about big brands conducting bumper lottery campaigns? The simple answer is a big NO then how you win?

Precautions:

  1. Never reveal your confidential information /financial information to any such sites. If you receive any such notification mails best practice is to avoid this.
  2. Check the sends details like email; no official company has confusing mail ids.
  3. Never click on any links on such mails, because you may end up into a hacker page which can create real problems for you system.
  4. Last rule nobody gives anybody free bread. Then who will give you such amount.

I have written this article very simple since it will be helpful for any readers. Never fall prey in hands of such anti social elements.
