Unified Payments Interface (UPI) has revolutionised digital transactions in India by offering seamless, real-time payments. However, as UPI usage increases, so do fraudulent activities. UPI payment frauds involve scammers exploiting unsuspecting users to steal money though deceptive means. Understanding the types of UPI frauds and knowing how to stay safe can help protect your finances.
Here’s a list of some of the most common UPI frauds and their solutions:
Fraudsters send fake links through SMS, emails, or social media, which trick users into entering their UPI transaction ID, UPI PIN, OTP, and card details on fake websites.
Scammers pretend to be bank representatives or payment app executives. They ask for sensitive information such as UPI ID, OTP, and card details or PIN, giving false assurances that they will “resolve issues” or “verify accounts.”
Scammers send a request for payment with the disguise of a refund or cashback. Money gets deducted if the user accidentally accepts.
Fraudsters make users download screen-sharing applications and gain access to their mobile screens and financial applications.
Fraudsters create fake UPI IDs that look similar to the actual ones or send fake QR codes or links that authenticate money transactions when scanned.
Scammers get a duplicate SIM card with your number and gain access to the UPI-linked bank accounts.
Awareness is your first line of defense against UPI fraud.
As UPI frauds are on the rise due to a lack of awareness, you must follow the tips given below to avoid fraudulent activities.
If you get cheated, place a complaint about UPI frauds immediately:
