Nellore Officials Warn Public About QR Code Tax Scams

Someone is trying to trick people in Nellore into paying taxes using fake QR codes.

These people are calling businesses and asking for payments that look like they are from the government.

The city's leader, the commissioner, says that this is not right.

He wants everyone to know that they should only pay taxes at the official places or online.

If anyone gets a suspicious call asking for money with a QR code, they should tell the police or call a special number.

The city is trying to stop people from losing money to these fake payment schemes.
