Many Ways of Cheating—Beware of Mobile SMSs

Hyderabad: ‘Dear BSNL User: Today Special Offer for You.  Just Dial 563000 and Win Bike and More’.  ‘Dear BSNL User- Dial 56300 (tollfree) and Answer Simple Question and Win Bike’.   This sort of messages are repeatedly being received now-a-days on the mobile.  These messages give an impression that they are from the BSNL and are genuine.  But, the fact is that these messages are being sent by fraudsters who want to cheat the people by many ways.  Beware of such messages.

Another message says: Oh, I missed Your Call.  Pl call me back at 550505177.  Yet another SMS says:  Hey (Your mobile Number here) Pl Call at 597977012 & chat unlimited’. Another message says: Are You Free- Pl call at 55552205949. People should be very cautious about such messages, as many types of frauds are being reported in the media almost on a daily basis.  Don’t become a victim of fraudsters’ gimmicks and tricks. Beware of messages in the name of Friendship also. (NSS)
