Understanding Internet Call Scams

Scammers are increasingly using internet calling, often from numbers that start with +697 or +698, making them difficult to trace. These calls pose a major challenge, as scammers often hide their location using VPNs, complicating efforts to identify and catch them.

Identifying scam calls

Don’t share personal information: Scammers may impersonate government officials or bank representatives.

Request a callback number: If they insist on information without giving a number to verify their identity, it’s likely a scam.

Reporting scams

To empower citizens in the fight against fraud, the government has launched the Chakshu portal. If you receive suspicious calls or messages, you can report them on this platform.
