Reliance Jio GigaFiber: Beware of fake ‘Activation Request’ email links

Cyber criminals are trying to exploit the buzz around Reliance Jio’s GigaFiber broadband service, expected to launch on August 12.

According to reports, scammers are sending emails with “Gigafiber – Activation Request Received” subject line. To make these emails look genuine, scammers have added Jio’s banner images along with “activation request received.”

Telecomtalk reports that these phishing emails have Jio-inspired fonts and graphics. If users look closely at the send ID of these emails, it’s not the genuine one. If you’ve also received such emails in your inbox, we strongly recommend not clicking on any link. You can also mark these emails as spam or block the sender completely.
