Unified Payments Interface (Unified Payments Interface (UPI)) is a new mode of online payment initiated by National Payments Corporation of India and Reserve Bank of India. Which facilitates inter-bank transactions. The interface is controlled by the Reserve Bank of India and works by instantly transferring funds between two bank accounts on the mobile platform. In this time of Corona period, people are avoiding going outside and going to crowded places. Most people are shopping online at the moment. In such a situation, digital transactions have seen a great boom in the last few months. Most people in India use UPI for digital transactions.
Do not download apps randomly
Nowadays, online fraudsters also take your personal information through applications. So do not download any application without thinking, read about it and then download it. Use UPI PIN only on secure applications like Bheem UPI. Only download authentic and verified apps by Google Play Store and Apple Store.
Fishing attack
Frauders can send you unauthorized payment links via SMS. So avoid downloading or opening any file from any unknown organization. Use antivirus, antispyware and firewall software. Update your web browser regularly and activate phishing filters.
Do not tell anyone UPI PIN
If you want to do a secure digital transaction, never share your UPI PIN with anyone. Please tell that UPI PIN is like ATM PIN.
Fraud is also done through OTP and UPI Pin
Do not reveal your one time password (OTP) and UPI PIN to anyone during payment. Because after receiving OTP and UPI PIN, money can be withdrawn from any account.
