Certain cyber fraudsters are making fake phone calls and sending SMS/WhatsApp messages in the name of Railway officials, seeking personal and financial details on the pretext of PPO updates, KYC verification, additional pension benefits, etc.
Indian Railways appeals the pensioners not to send links or messages for updating PPO or service records.
It is further said that No Railway official is authorized to seek bank details, OTPs, passwords, or any confidential information through phone calls, SMS, WhatsApp, or social media.
It is advised to the pensioners to remain vigilant and also sensitise their family members in this regard. Any suspicious call or message should be immediately reported to the Police Cyber Cell and the concerned administrative office.
