Share information wisely
In many other places like bank, loan, insurance company, you are asked for Aadhaar information. In such a situation, you have to pay attention to whom you have to give your Aadhaar and who does not.

Never share information with them
You should not give your Aadhaar information to everyone. For example, if Aadhaar information is asked in any store, restaurant or gym etc., then it should not be shared there. Your data can be stored in many places and later it can be passed on to fraudsters. Therefore, the OTP received for authentication should not be shared with anyone.
