UPI Frauds Rise to Rs 805 Crore

UPI Frauds Rise to Rs 805 Crore

India has seen a lot of money lost to fraud through UPI, which is a way to pay digitally.

This year, up to November, Rs 805 crore was lost in 10.64 lakh incidents.

This is less than last year, when Rs 981 crore was lost, but more than the year before that.

The government and banks are trying to stop these frauds by using special technology and teaching people how to stay safe.

They also have a helpline and a website where people can report fraud.

Even though there are more frauds, more people are using UPI to pay, with billions of transactions happening every month.
