UPI Fraud Se Kaise Bachen? 10 Important Safety Rules

1. UPI PIN Kabhi Share Na Karein
UPI PIN aapki payment security ka important part hai. Bank employee, customer-care executive, delivery agent, friend ya koi unknown person agar aapse UPI PIN maangta hai, to share na karein.
Golden rule: UPI PIN ko kisi ke saath share nahi karna chahiye.

Paise receive karne ke naam par UPI PIN enter karna suspicious situation ho sakti hai. Remember: UPI PIN is strictly for sending money, not receiving it.

QR code dekhkar automatically trust mat karein. QR scan karne se pehle screen par receiver ka naam aur amount carefully check karein. Agar transaction ka purpose clear nahi hai, payment mat karein.
4. Unknown Links Par Click Na Karein
Fraudsters SMS, WhatsApp, email aur social media ke through fake links bhej sakte hain. Aise message par click karne ke bajay official bank ya UPI app ko manually open karke verify karein.
