Scammers are taking advantage of loopholes in the Aadhaar-enabled Payment System (AePS) to empty your bank account completely. The fraud does not require SMS or OTP authentication, which is much more concerning. According to the reports, the Indian market has apparently seen an increase in a new type of scam employing Aadhaar cards.
The Bengaluru Police commissioner warned about this new scam on social media X ( previously known as Twitter) and asked individuals to lock Aadhaar biometrics to avoid any fraud. The post also said to use locking feature in Aadhaar to prevent misuse of Aadhaar biometric. Lock your biometrics on the official UIDAI website/App of Aadhaar.
