00:30They become your relative and tell you that they had an accident and you should transfer the money to them.
00:46Sometimes they tell you that they are your son and you should transfer the money to them or they won't let you go.
00:54These are all new ways of trapping cybercriminals.
00:59You don't have to give them any QR code or OTP or transfer any money to them.
01:10In a sample, it was found that 80% of the people were trapped in this voice cloning.
01:14This means that these people can do a very close voice.
01:25First of all, you should doubt the person who asked for the money.
01:31You should start inquiring him.
01:33You should tell him that you are coming back.
01:37You should ask him to call you back after 2 minutes.
01:39You should take 2 minutes.
01:40Till then, you should cut the call and call the person who is trying to become your relative.
01:45You should call the person who is trying to become your husband, wife, son or anything else.
01:53You will get to know whether it was a fraud or not.
01:56You should never transfer the money immediately.
02:00People get emotional and say that their child met with an accident.
02:03You should give at least 2 minutes.
02:06You should inquire and verify.

02:13When someone is calling you as your husband, you should ask him a family question that a common man doesn't know.
02:21No one will know the name of his grandmother.
02:24Because in your Aadhaar card, the data that can be stored in a public domain,
02:29the name of your parents, grandparents is never there.
02:32So, by asking a family question like this, you can verify whether there is a fraud with you or not.
02:39If there is a fraud with you,
02:43call the National Cyber Helpline at 1930 and lodge a complaint.
02:48Contact the nearest police station.
