Key Highlights
- Victims receive SMS messages claiming they have unpaid traffic fines.
- The messages often include warnings about licence suspension or legal action, prompting recipients to act quickly.
- A shortened link in the message directs users to a fake website designed to closely resemble official Regional Transport Office (RTO) or e-Challan portals.
- Once on the site, users are shown fabricated violation details, typically involving small penalty amounts such as ₹590, accompanied by urgent deadlines.
- These details are generated dynamically, with no connection to any real government database.
