Speaking to media persons the Commissioner of Police said on Thursday that the cops would not hesitate to take stringent action against those who misuse Facebook, WhatsApp and other social media to abuse someone or to provoke people.

Asked about ‘Veera Kesari’, a pro-Sangh Parivar Facebook page wherein a miscreant threatened to rape and murder a Mangaluru-based social activist for complaining against Bajrang Dal activists who forcefully stopped the screening of Shah Rukh Khan starrer Dilwale at various cinema halls in Mangaluru, he said that the accused will be arrested if a complaint was lodged.

He said that when activist Vidya Dinker brought a derogatory Facebook post against her to the notice of police through a WhatsApp message, the accused was summoned and warned. Later, he removed the provocative post from his Facebook wall.

“If Ms Dinker files a formal complaint against him and other miscreants who posted derogatory and provocative comments against her, a criminal case may be booked against them,” he said.

Mangaluru, Dec 20: City Police Commissioner Sudheer Kumar Reddy has issued a high-alert warning to vehicle owners regarding a surge in cyber fraud targeting those looking to pay traffic violation fines. Fraudsters are reportedly exploiting recent government discount schemes on traffic penalties to deceive citizens.

The Scam: How Fraudsters Strike

Criminals are using SMS, WhatsApp, and social media to circulate suspicious links and APK files (Android application packages). They claim these apps allow users to pay e-challans at a discount.

•    Device Hacking: Downloading these unauthorized apps gives hackers full access to the victim's smartphone.

•    Financial Theft: Once the phone is compromised, fraudsters intercept OTPs and personal data to drain bank accounts.

•    Phishing Sites: Fake websites mimicking official portals are also being used to harvest banking credentials.

Already, two residents within Mangaluru city limits have reported significant financial losses after falling victim to these fraudulent apps.
