Bengaluru, Jan 12: Strongly refuting the Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s remark that Congress in Karnataka is treating Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy as a ‘clerk’ Congress leader in the Loka Sabha M Mallikarjuna Kharge said that “PM’s assumption is wrong”.

Speaking to newsmen here on Saturday, Mr Kharge stated that “Prime minister is not caring the advise given by his own members in the cabinet”.

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.
