Kriti Kharbanda about whatsapp scamster. Kriti Kharbanda warned her fans to be careful against a whatsapp scamster impersonating her.
Kriti Kharbanda posted a screenshot of the fraudulent WhatsApp conversation on Instagram Stories, clarifying that the number used did not belong to her. In her message, she stated, "Not ok. Not cool. Not my number. Pretending to be someone you're not is a clear case of identity theft. Be warned," making it clear that any messages from the number should be regarded as fraudulent.
The screenshot included a conversation where the recipient responded, 'This is not her number,' to which the impersonator replied, 'I messaged from this baba.'
Earlier celebrities like Rakul Preet Singh, Sunny Leone, and Abhinav Shukla reported similar incidents. Abhinav Shukla said, "Fraudsters are evolving faster than we do; they have a new trick up their sleeve each time. Even though I’m a public figure, I’m an introvert at heart, so I don’t end up sharing too much online, but in such cases where people are impersonating you, no matter how careful one is, you end up getting trapped in these scams. All one can do is try to be vigilant and avoid sharing personal information online."
