Do not trust fake calls
In most cases, scammers call and say KYC expires. Do not trust any such call. Note, no bank is offering the option to update it when KYC expires with the help of a call.

Do not install any app
Scammers often ask users to install an app on the phone, so that the KYC process can be completed. With the help of such an app, the device can be remotely controlled and fraud can be easily done. Do not download any app.
OTP sharing mistake
No matter how important it is, do not share OTP with anyone on your phone. Doing so can mean messing with the safety of your account. In any process, the bank does not ask for the user's OTP.
Account or mobile wallet details
Be careful not to share information related to your banking details or mobile wallet with anyone. Go to the bank directly and confirm if necessary. Sensitive information of users is not asked on the call from the bank.
Do not click on the link
It is better to avoid clicking on the link given in any kind of unknown message. Many links install malware into the device, with the help of which bank details are subsequently stolen.
