During the call, victims were manipulated into sharing OTPs and other sensitive information. Using these details, scammers reportedly initiated SIM swapping or porting requests and gained control of mobile numbers. ध्यान रखें: • Never share OTPs or verification details over calls • Always verify callers claiming to represent government departments • Never ignore SIM porting alerts or sudden network loss • Contact your telecom provider immediately if your SIM stops working unexpectedly Chaachi Chaukanni hai… ab tum bhi ho jao.
