Part Time Job Cyber Fraud: Cases of cyber fraud are increasing rapidly all over the world including India. Cyber thugs are also targeting people who want part-time jobs and post about them on social media. Cyber thugs take advantage of this opportunity to get people’s details and then impersonate them as HR managers of recruitment agencies or companies. After this a person’s entire bank account is emptied due to one mistake.
Recently Delhi Police also shared a post on social media platform X. Police have warned to avoid clicking on any unknown part time job link as it may be a link to malware that steals account and personal details.
How cyber thugs connect with people
Indeed, such cyber thugs are very active on social media and keep looking for such opportunities. If a person likes or posts a post about a part-time job, the cyber thug accesses his social media account and contacts you via Instagram, Linkedin, WhatsApp or any other platform.
This is how the cheat ends
Cyber fraudsters talk to you nicely, and then ask you to install their app on your smartphone. As soon as you install the app on your phone, your personal and financial information becomes available to them. After that they empty your account. In such a situation it is essential that you stay away from such fraudsters and avoid clicking on any such link. Apart from this, inform the police immediately in case of cyber fraud.
