Beware of Online Scams Impersonating Trusted Brands

Beware of Online Scams Impersonating Trusted Brands

Your trust and safety are our top priorities. We have recently seen a rise in scam messages and ads circulating on platforms like WhatsApp, Telegram, SMS, and social media such as Facebook and Instagram, falsely using our name, logo, or branding to mislead users.

These scams often promote fake investment schemes, impersonate official teams, or offer “guaranteed returns” and “premium tips” — all of which are completely fraudulent.

What Do These Scam Messages and Ads Look Like?

Scammers use various tactics, including:

  • Promises of ₹5,000 to ₹10,000 daily profits through trading.
  • Claims of access to “Premium Research Groups” or “Official Advisory Teams.”
  • Fake screenshots, testimonials, or “success stories.”
  • Suspicious links or invitations to join private groups.
  • Requests for personal details or upfront payments.

Common Examples:

  • “Join our Premium Telegram group for daily ₹5,000 profit. Limited seats! 90% accuracy guaranteed!”
  • “Our research team has found a stock that will double in 7 days. Click here to know more!”

These are fraudulent attempts to exploit your trust. Do not engage with such messages.

“Start investing with confidence! Explore 0 demat account and grow your wealth.”

What You Should Know

  • No legitimate company offers guaranteed profits or stock tips via WhatsApp, Telegram, or SMS.
  • Investment always involves risk — beware of any group or ad promising fixed or daily returns.

  • Never share sensitive information (PAN, Aadhaar, OTPs, account numbers) outside official channels.

  • Report any scams or impersonation attempts to our cybersecurity team or helpline.
