UIDAI alerts users against scammers, warns not to trust WhatsApp or e-mail messages

Scams and cybercrimes are on rise these days. With technology advancing every day, scamsters have also upgraded their means and ways to deceive you. In light of this, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has warned users against fake messages on WhatsApp and email. These messages ask users to share their Aadhaar details for update purposes. These are fraudulent messages and are designed to steal your personal information.

In a tweet, UIDAI said, “Beware of fraudsters. UIDAI never asks you to share your documents to update your Aadhaar through Email or WhatsApp.”
