Is this offer genuine?

If you have also received such a message or link, then wait! Don’t make the mistake of clicking on it at all. Let us know the truth about this viral offer.

First and foremost – this offer 100% fake Is. Spotify or Netflix have not made any announcement of any such offer on their official website, app or any social media handle. This is a scam being run by cyber fraudsters, whose aim is to steal your personal and banking information.

How does this scam work?

This is a type of phishing scam. Fraudsters lure you with an attractive offer and ask you to click on a link. This link takes you to a fake website, which looks exactly like the real Spotify website.

As soon as you enter your debit/credit card information or UPI details to make payment of Rs 499, these fraudsters steal that information. Many times they also ask you for OTP. Once they get this information, they can empty your bank account.

How to stay safe from such scams?

1. Don’t be tempted: If an offer seems so good that it is difficult to believe, then understand that there is something wrong with it. No company will provide its services at such a low price.
2. Do not click on the link: Never click on any suspicious link from unknown numbers or on social media.
3. Check official website: To know the truth of any offer, always visit the company’s official website or app.
4. Note the URL: Before making payment, check the website address (URL) carefully. The URL of a fake website often has spelling mistakes or is slightly different from the original website (such as Spotify instead of Spotify).
5. Do not share OTP and password: Never share your bank’s OTP, password or CVV with anyone.

Remember, a little caution can save you from a big financial loss. Enjoy the offers this Diwali, but always keep your eyes and ears open in the online world.
