Farmers Being Defrauded Under the Guise of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme!"},"content":{"rendered":"\n

Farmers, be cautious, or else your bank account will be emptied.<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The central and state governments have implemented various schemes for farmers. One such scheme is the “PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Scheme,” under which eligible farmers receive an annual benefit of six thousand rupees. However, these six thousand rupees are not given to farmers in one lump sum. Instead, they are distributed in three equal installments of two thousand rupees each to the bank account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far, eligible farmers have received a total of 17 installments through this scheme. Now, these farmers are eagerly awaiting the upcoming 18th installment. Amidst this, shocking news has emerged regarding this scheme: farmers are being defrauded by cyber criminals under the guise of this scheme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bogus Link Goes Viral<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to this, farmers need to take certain precautions. According to information received, a bogus link is currently going viral on social media under the name of the PM Kisan Scheme. When this link is clicked, an application is downloaded onto the mobile. Once this application is downloaded, the mobile and SIM card are hacked, meaning the control of the mobile and SIM card goes into someone else\u2019s hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


In this way, the concerned person is defrauded. Therefore, experts have advised farmers not to click on any such links. If you see such a link on social media, do not click on it; otherwise, your bank account may be emptied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contact the Helpline<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As mentioned above, in case of cyber fraud, farmers should immediately call the helpline number 1930. Besides, farmers can also visit the official website of cybercrime to file a formal complaint about this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you need any information about the PM Kisan Scheme<\/a>, you should visit the official government website of the PM Kisan Scheme. Additionally, you can download its official government application from the Play Store. Do not trust any third-party applications. Before clicking on any link, ensure that the link is not bogus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
