Railway pension scam alert: Ministry says no official authorised to ask for OTP, bank details
The government on Wednesday advised railway pensioners to remain vigilant against scammers who are sending messages claiming to update pension payment orders (PPOs) or service records.
The Railways Ministry said that it has come to notice that 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.”
