Can be cheated due to these mistakes while booking a train ticket?
Number 1
Not everyone gets a confirmed train ticket to go home on Diwali. In such a situation, people seek the help of a broker, many of which are outside the railway station. You do not have to believe in every broker here because they take money from you in this festive season, but you are unable to give confirmed train tickets. So always contact the trusted broker or book the train ticket immediately.

Number 2
In this festive season, you have to stay away from fake apps and websites. Fraudsters create a similar app and website like real, which you go on, and then it gets cheated. Therefore, always book online tickets from the official app of IRCTC or the official portal irctc. Co.in/Nget/Train- Search, so that you can avoid cheating.

Number 3
On the occasion of Diwali, you have to stay away from fake calls, otherwise one of your mistakes can make you a victim of cheating. People search numbers on Google to talk to the customer care of the railway, but here you can find the wrong numbers updated by the fraudsters. Therefore, know that the official helpline number of Indian Railways (Rail Held) is 139.

Number 4
It is necessary to stay away from fraudsters because when you do not get a confirmed train ticket for Diwali, many people can send unknown links in messages, emails, etc. to cheat you about things like getting confirmed train tickets. Do not forget to click on these unknown links. Otherwise, you can be a victim of cheating.
