Later releasing a press note, he said that the fraudsters would make calls under the guise of delay in delivery of parcel, issuance of credit cards, quick returns through online business activities and others. He said that they would also make calls under the pretext of income tax refund, updating of KYC details and others. He said that those who were cheated by those fraudsters can dial 1930 and help-line number 1800-11-4000. Mr. Gopinath Jatti urged people to send mails to cybercrime.gov.in portal immediately if they were duped by cyber criminals.

Although students from Tamil Nadu remain the leading recipients of educational loans across India, there has been a significant decline in the number of active loans they hold. The number of active education loan accounts decreased from 27.4 lakh accounts to about 20.1 lakh in the period. The fall can be mostly attributed to the fall in Tamil Nadu’s numbers.
