[New Delhi]Income Tax Department’s Advise,,Don’t Share Personal Data over Phone,email
The Indian Income Tax department on Tuesday issued an advisory asking taxpayers not to share their personal financial details over email or phone and urged them to register a complaint in case they face such malicious attempt.
The advisory has come at a time when income tax returns (ITRs) filing season has concluded and it is an opportune time for hackers and other fraudsters to launch phishing attempts to compromise users’ vital data for their illegal benefits by dishing out false promises about pending refunds or ITR authentications.
The attempt to issue the advisory is a step in making aware the taxpayers about such instances and attempts, a senior I-T official said.
