Residents in Pimpri are being warned about fake messages claiming their water supply will be cut off if they don’t pay their bills. The PCMC has issued a statement advising people to be on the lookout for these fraudulent SMS messages. The messages are coming from unauthorized numbers and are causing unnecessary panic among residents.
The PCMC has made it clear that all official notices regarding water bills are sent through verified channels and not through random text messages. Despite this, residents are still receiving these misleading messages, some of which even contain harmful files that could compromise personal information.
To combat this issue, residents are being urged to report any suspicious messages to the nearest police station or the cybercrime cell. The PCMC is working closely with the cyber police to track down those responsible for sending these fake messages.
Commissioner Shekhar Singh emphasized the importance of not engaging with these messages and not downloading any attachments that may come with them. Residents are urged to report any incidents of fraudulent messages immediately to prevent any financial fraud.
It’s important for residents to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to help protect themselves and their personal information. Stay alert and don’t fall victim to these scams!
