How to not get "Digital Arrested"? - Some Useful Tips Here

In the recent few months, people have been getting scammed in the name of Digital Arrests. Here are some tips for you guys to prevent you from getting caught. Also, share them with the elders in your family as they are the soft targets.

Tips to not get "Digital Arrested"

  1. First of all, there is no term like Digital Arrest. If the police authorities or government security agencies want to arrest you they will come to your doorstep with an arrest warrant and not video call you.
  2. Second, never ever receive calls other than the +91 code number. If you get calls from ISD codes like +44 or +65, +880, or something like that, don't pick and straightaway block that number.
  3. Only receive video calls from your friends and family and the contact numbers that you have saved and not unknown numbers.
  4. Never disclose your OTP or bank details to anyone. Not even the bank officials over the call. Always remember authentic bank officials will never ask for your OTP. So please keep this in your mind.
  5. If you have like lakhs or crores of money in your bank account, you don't need to be scared of it. It is the money that you have earned through hard work and labor. Don't let anyone put evil eyes on it. In most cases, these scammers attack recent retirees as they know that these people have received retirement funds in lakhs and crores.

Also, it is not important to answer every damn call. You can keep the unknown numbers ringing, if they are your known ones, they will either message you personally or call other family members in the family.

Pls be cautious, be aware and be vocal!!

Transport business 2024

Hii All So my father has started transport business from last 1 year. To be honest , we started with tractor trailers basically 22 wheeler truck but due to excitement we made the trailer body overweight due to which our profit is getting hampered.its just like giving the emi and paper expenses nothing else.

Apart from this, last month after 8 months of inception we purchased 2 more trailers but this time not repeating the mistake , these trailer are kinda profitable and smooth operation.

Luckily we don't have any operational issues yet as my father was involved in transport business in his 20s but then job and now again this business .He being from mechanical background,it's not hard for him to lookout the general issues.

With all these information I would like to ask you all that, I want to expand this business i.e by increasing the number of trucks ofc but I don't get any idea about what to do, what's the right time.

How to beat the market heat!!! How to get tenders ?work orders?

What should be the gap between expansion and running of the fleet??

In addition : we already have a retail business as our primary business and we wanted to indulge into other dimensions too. We started with trailers because I think all the 12-14-16 wheelers market are in dying phase .

Before starting I did a 2-3 months analysis of market rates and miscellaneous expenses too!!

Indian states tourism logos.

Persoanlly, I do like logo of J&K, HP, Kerala, MP, Manipur and A&N. They represent what their state is known for as in tourism. I am not sure what went wrong with Goa, UP, Bihar, Lakshadweep, Delhi, Harayana, Meghalaya and Puducherry. They all need rebranding seriously. I saw this post on about how bad the Mizoram tourism logo is and can't disagree with that. Rajasthan's logo looks more a scouting badge. Punjab? Whats that. I am also not sure what Sikkim, Odisha and Nagaland's logos are trying to represent. If anyone knows let me know

Is India becoming a Fascist Country.

The events happening under the current government bear a horrific resemblance to those in Germany in the 1930s.

For instance, the Indian media, instead of covering the core issues of the nation, is spreading government propaganda. During TV debates, the anchor often supports the current government spokesperson, and most of the time, the debates revolve around topics like international conspiracies and internal threats against Indians (excluding a specific community) by the so-called Tukde Tukde gang, Urban Naxals, etc. They propagate the notion that only the Prime Minister can save Indians from these threats. This creation of a Cult of Personality and of an international and national threat is similar to how Hitler spread his propaganda.

Anyone who criticizes the government gets cancelled on social media by the IT cell, faces FIRs, and gets arrested and jailed under charges like UAPA and black money. These individuals often don't face a court trial but endure a media trial that completely demonizes them and labels them as anti-national, similar to what happened in Nazi Germany.

Due to this propaganda machinery, the youth are becoming increasingly radicalized. To make matters worse, history is now being distorted, much like what happened in Germany. This propaganda is demonizing a specific community in India, spreading rumours about them, and almost creating an image that people from this community are invaders and traitors, which is eerily similar to what happened in Germany.

God save this country.

Awareness about recent SCAM Fundraiser posts

r/india post for funds

r/indiadiscussion post for fundraised by scammer. Has different Title than actual fundraiser

reverse search image show old image from ketto used as his son

Asked for details on DM. No reply.

Later all posts and comments delted.

I wanted to share about SCAM Fundraiser post following through in different subreddits from past few days.

I have seen this post in r/india, r/indiadiscussion, r/delhi, r/IndiaSpeaks, r/unitedstatesofindia, r/cardindia, After few hours, scammer deletes this post. I have specific names of the this user and its associated account, using which he/she adds this scam posts. If mods will allow, I can share them here.

Why I think this is a scam post?

  1. I have confirmed this with Goregaon Hospital Branch, there is NO such patient with mentioned details.
  2. Reliance Hospital Reports have something called PatientID or UHID, which not shared by scammer anywhere. (Hospital staff shared this info. Someone else can also confirm)
  3. A simple reverse search on child's image, will give you similar fundraiser post from Kitto few years back. It shows scammer has copied the childs image stating its his son. (Attaching screenshot of Kitto because Google might refresh cache of that post as its deleted now from Kitto)
  4. I have asked the scammer in DM to provide details on 29th Nov 2024 regarding more details. I am still waiting for it.
  5. Few days back scammer was asking money for his brothers health and later raised this post in r/india.

Why I am writing this?

  1. I wanted these communities to be safe and trustworthy for everyone. When I see something on reddit, I genuinely believe that its legit and someone might need help.
  2. To spread awareness and avoid this in future. Because of this scammer had raised 1.32Lakh of our money which breach our trust on community and as a person.

How to identify scam posts quickly?

  1. Avoid Impactguru - I have notified Impactguru regarding the same and all they have said is "We will contact you". So, avoid this platform for fundraisers. They will ask for Aadhar card and PAN card and makes the fundraiser live. Use Kitto/Milaap verified posts only for donation.(correct me if I am woring here)
  2. Contact Hospital - Connect with hospital to verify some treatment is going on with the patient or not. Don't ask personal details, just verify the details you have.
  3. Ask for details - A valid fundraiser/user will not hesitate to provide any information you will ask. And he/she will be quick about it. If Fundraiser have less details, be cautious.
  4. Also check user profile history - You can check how much user is interacting with platform or past comments/posts. This will help you decide better. (But sometimes new users also post for helps. Just keep your mind open)
  5. Share a post - You can also add a post just like me to help others and report such scam post as soon as possible.

P.S. Thanks to u/CulturalVacation7246 for giving more details and u/IAmMohit [MOD] for taking this post down quickly.

Stay Safe.

Lesbians in TN who'd be interested in a Lavender wedding

Hi, I'd like to know if there's any lesbian in Tamil Nadu (in the Kongu region : Salem, Coimbatore, Tirupur, Erode, Tiruchengode etc.) below the age of 27 who are looking to get married for convenience. I'm 27 M, only child, and I'm looking into the possibility of MOC where we're together to keep up appearances but in reality we're just doing whatever we want with our lives. There's the issue of my parents pressuring me to get married within the community, which is insane cause I'm not at all interested in getting married to any female, let alone within my extremely narrow minded and regressive community. But that could probably be managed somehow ig. I've heard stories of bi/ hetero women in an MOC who threw their husbands under the bus in certain scenarios that's why I'm looking for a lesbian in which case we'd both be careful not to out eachother no matter the situation. I do not want children, I intend on being childfree forever. The only thing I can offer is friendship and certain good qualities like honesty, trustworthiness and empathy. I have never gotten turned on by women at all so you don't have to worry about your safety. In fact I've lost interest in any kind of physical relations in general recently, especially after I progressing in my spiritual journey. That could potentially be one small issue, I might prioritize my spiritual journey and just go off to explore it further for certain periods of time when I'll be unavailable. So someone with spiritual inclinations would be good, where we can both see if we can progress as fellow comrades on this quest for truth and enlightenment. I guess I might be asking for too much so even if you aren't spiritual it's fine :P that's again manageable I guess. So yeah please DM me if you're interested, I don't know if I've made a good enough case for myself :P And for the other readers of this post out there, feel free to give advice regarding this, even I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing but yeah. I'm mainly doing this to appease my parents who have a very very real concern of me being taken advantage of and scammed out of our families' assets by greedy relatives. They are justified in their concern since actual scary events have happened to other relatives in my community who didn't marry or have children. Although I won't have children I'm hoping just the fact that I'll have in laws will offer some sort of protection.
