How does the Digital Arrest scam work?

PM Modi said that in this scam, the thugs call by claiming to be officers of the police, CBI, narcotics, or RBI. These people talk with great confidence and already have information about you, such as your recent travel or family information.

Their first step is to collect your personal information. After this, they create fear in your mind, which makes you panic. For example, they tell you that you are in some legal trouble.

Fear and time pressure

PM said that the fraudsters first create fear and then put pressure on the time. They say that you have to take a decision immediately or else you will be arrested. This type of psychological pressure confuses the victim and he is unable to take the right decision.

Anyone can be harmed

PM Modi also said that this scam does not only target people of one class or age, but people of every age and class are falling prey to it. Many people have lost their hard-earned money due to this fear.

Ways to avoid scams

PM Modi has told some ways to avoid this scam:

Don't panic: If you get a suspicious call, don't panic. Know that no investigative agency conducts inquiries over the phone like this.

Stop, think, take action: First stop, then think, and then take a decision.

Make a recording: If possible, make a video or audio recording of the call.

Report: In such cases, call the National Cyber ​​Helpline 1930 or report on cybercrime.gov.in. Inform your family and the police about this.
