‘Valentine Week’ has started with ‘Rose Day’ on Friday. Cyber ​​criminals and scammers are also looking for opportunities for themselves in the name of Valentine. In such a situation, the government and the police have launched a special campaign to alert people towards ‘romance scam’. The Indian Cyber ​​Crime Co-ordination Center (I4C), which is working under the Union Home Ministry, is making people aware on social media under the ‘Valentine Week’ hashtag parallel to ‘Valentine’s Week’.

The police of Jharkhand are also sharing posts related to it on their official handle under this social media campaign. In a poster shared on the official X account of ‘I4C’ on Friday, people have been asked, ‘What will you do if your online sweet heart asked for money?’

Along with this, it is written in the post, ‘In this romance season, do not cheat in the name of love. Join Romance Scam Prevention Week with cyber friend and learn effective tips and remedies to avoid scammers. ‘

People have been appealed that if they are victims of cyber fraud in the name of romance, call on 1930 or report on ‘Cybercrime dot GOV.com in’.

An official of the cyber police station in Ranchi said that many cases of cyber fraud have come in recent times while looking for love and relationship on the Internet. A few months ago, when a Ranchi girl liked a boy’s profile through a marriage site, the conversation started and the mobile number was exchanged.

There was also talk of meeting in Ranchi, but in the meantime, the boy cheated himself for 7 lakh rupees by telling himself a false anecdote of being caught at Delhi Airport. Even after getting the money, the vicious profile deleted the profile.
