Gujarat Samachar reported that a trader in Ahmedabad lost ₹1. 30 lakh to a fraudster posing as an Adani Gas employee. Impersonation scams targeting utility customers affect residents in many Indian cities, including Bengaluru.
Bengaluru residents regularly get doorstep visits from gas and utility workers, so verifying IDs can prevent similar losses. Never pay cash or share OTPs with unverified visitors.
Check the photo ID of anyone claiming to be from a gas or utility company before opening your door or making any payment.
