beware of tempting promises
You will find characters like Raju of ‘Phir Hera Pheri’ in everyday life. Who will tell you different schemes to earn immense money in a short time. You have to be careful with such people. Remember that tempting dishes are often harmful to your health. Don’t let any unknown person manage your finances.
Avoid In App Purchases
Usually, there is no problem in making purchases with in-app purchases, but many times thugs redirect you out of the app’s official payment channel on the pretext of in-app purchases. After this, you are encouraged to make a purchase by giving a very tempting offer and before you understand anything, you have become a victim of fraud.
save personal information
Try to protect your personal information as far as possible on online gaming apps or any other kind of apps. Thugs often take you into confidence using your personal information and cheat money from you in different ways. Do not share your mobile number, email id, password or bank details with anyone online. Share these things only where you know the person in front very well.
