Be it the state governments or the central government, both run many such schemes through which the needy and poor can benefit. Every year lakhs and crores of rupees are also spent on these schemes. Like- The central government is giving the benefit of free ration to the poor and needy people of the country. The free ration was started during the Corona period, which is still going on. In this, the government gives free ration to the ration card holders, but do you know that fraudsters can cheat you in the name of this free ration? Probably not, so in such a situation, it becomes important for you to know which mistakes you should not make and what things you have to keep in mind. By doing this you can avoid being a victim of fraud. So let's know about this...

Don't make these mistakes:-

Number 1
If you ever get a call in which you are told about getting a free ration or if your banking information like account number, ATM card, PIN, CVV, etc. is asked in the guise of a free ration, then never give it.

Number 2
Suppose you have received a call and the person on the other side introduces himself as an officer of the Food and Logistics Department or any other officer and asks for the OTP received on your mobile, then keep in mind that never share it. No officer asks for OTP from you. Especially if money can be withdrawn from your account with that OTP.

Number 3
If you ever get a call in which you are told that the free ration you get will be stopped, then do not be afraid of such a call at all and do not give any of your information or money, etc. If you feel so, then contact your ration dealer.

Number 4

Many times it is seen that there are many frauds in the name of KYC. If you get any link on your mobile for KYC, then never click on it. Otherwise, your mobile can be hacked and you can be cheated.
