Beware of Fake Reward Points Scam: Telangana Police Alert!

18 Jan, 2025 10:24 IST

Telangana Police have issued an alert about a rising scam targeting credit card users. Fraudsters are sending fake messages posing as leading banks, claiming that reward points are about to expire. The messages prompt users to click on a link and download an APK file to claim or extend their reward points.

However, downloading these files gives scammers access to sensitive information, including bank details and personal data. Police have advised the public to be cautious and not download APK files from unknown sources. It’s essential to verify any suspicious reward offers directly with your bank.
