Is Mukesh Ambani giving 3 months of Jio recharge for free on his son's wedding?
A message is going viral, in which it is being claimed that Reliance Jio is giving 3 months of free recharge to its users as a celebration of Anant Ambani's wedding. Let us tell you, Jio is not giving free recharge to any user and they have advised not to trust such messages.
A fake message is going viral on WhatsApp claiming that Reliance Jio is giving its users 3 months of free recharge as a part of Anant Ambani's wedding celebration. The message is written in Hindi and users are being asked to click on a link to get free recharge, which is completely false. According to a report by India Today, Jio is not giving free recharge to any user and they have advised not to believe such messages.
This message is reaching people.
The fake message reads, 'On the occasion of Anant Ambani's wedding on July 12, Mukesh Ambani is giving 3 months free recharge of Rs 799 to all the people of India. So now recharge your number by clicking on the blue link given below.' It includes a link to an unknown site named Mahacashback.
Do not click on the link.
Users are advised to recharge their numbers only through official sources such as the MyJio app or trusted online payment apps like Google Pay. The message has several signs that indicate its fake nature, such as the words 'click on the blue link' and the inclusion of an unauthorized site link for recharge. Also, if Reliance Jio was actually offering a 3-month free recharge plan, it would have been all over the news. By transacting only using official channels, users can protect themselves from potential fraud.
How to catch scam messages?
Recognizing fake messages on WhatsApp can help you avoid potential scams. First, pay attention to messages from unknown numbers, especially if they contain suspicious links or attachments. Scammers often impersonate reputable organizations, so always verify the sender. Second, be wary of messages that create a rush, such as claiming you've won a prize or that your account will be shut down if you don't respond immediately.
