howitworks.ioBas ek code dial kiya
Shaam ke saat baje Kavya ko ek call aaya. "Ma'am, aapka courier ruka hua hai, bas ek chhota sa code dial kar dijiye." Usne *401* ke saath ek number dial kiya, aur call kat gaya. Poori raat phone pe ek bhi call nahi aaya.
Agli subah mummy ka message tha: "Beta, raat ko sabse 10,000 rupaye kyun maange?" Kavya ne na OTP bataya tha, na koi link khola tha. Phir bhi uska WhatsApp kisi aur ke haath mein tha.
Case 03 ka sach: Clue 1, code: *401* call forwarding ka code hai. Dial karte hi aapke saare calls chupchaap thug ke number pe jaane lagte hain. Clue 2, WhatsApp: thug ne apne phone mein Kavya ke number se WhatsApp khola aur code ke liye "Call me" chuna. Wo call seedha thug ke paas gaya. Clue 3, baaki calls: bank ke call wale OTP, delivery aur ghar walon ke calls, sab wahi pahunch rahe the. Aur Kavya ka phone bilkul normal dikh raha tha.

Aaj ye karo
- *401* ke baad koi anjaan number kabhi dial mat karo.
- Koi telecom company aapko aisa code dial karne ko nahi kehti.
- Fraud ho jaaye toh 1930 pe call karo ya cybercrime.gov.in pe report karo.
