A message is being sent to the people in the name of RBI, in which it is being talked about giving Rs 4.62 crore to the account within 30 minutes on a one-time investment of Rs 12,500. PIB has informed the people about it by fact-checking it.
New Delhi: Do you also want to become a millionaire in a jiffy? Today, a special message is coming on people’s mobiles that on an investment of just Rs 12,500, you will get an amount of more than 4 crores. This greed to get crores by investing thousands is putting people in big losses. Cybercrime is also increasing rapidly in digital India. Let’s know the truth of this message.
Become a millionaire in a jiffy!
In a viral message, it is being claimed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) that on an investment of Rs 12,500, Rs 4.62 crore will be deposited in your account within 30 minutes. But, don’t fall into this trap even by mistake. Actually, PIB said that any such messages have nothing to do with the government or RBI.
PIB alerted!
PIB gave this information by tweeting and said, ‘Getting 4 crore 62 lakh by putting 12,500. Some things are so good that it is hard to believe. Frauds use government seals to cheat people. Don’t fall in the trap of such people.
Pay Rs 12,500 and get Rs 4 crores 62 lakhs in return‼️
Well, some things are just too good to be true.
Fraudsters impersonate Government organisations to dupe people of money.
Do not fall for such #FAKE approval letters or schemes in the name of @RBI #PIBFactCheck pic.twitter.com/0K5VJQISPK

In this tweet, PIB has attached a scene from the film Hera Pheri to caution people, in which people were duped by saying that they doubled their money in just 25 days. In fact, even in this scene of the film, the fraudsters get stunned by the hard earned money of innocent people.
Stay away from this type of hoax
It is worth noting that PIB keeps fact-checking such fake claims from time to time. And also cautions people to stay away from such fake claims. After the lockdown, there has been an increase in online transactions in the country, after which, the cases of online fraud have also increased.
