<div>Did you receive a missed call from an unfamiliar international number with a country code you don't recognize? It's best to avoid returning the call. Scammers are increasingly using international numbers to make their scams harder to detect, and the Premium Rate Service Scam is targeting mobile users across India, affecting all telecom operators.</div> 
<br>
<div>At Jio, we prioritize your safety and digital experience, and we believe it's crucial to keep you informed to help you avoid falling victim to scams.Here's how you can protect yourself.</div><br>
<div><strong>What is the Premium Rate Service Scam and How Does it Work?</strong></div>
<div>The Premium Rate Service Scam is a deceptive tactic used by scammers posing as legitimate service providers. They initiate the scam by making missed calls from unfamiliar international numbers, often targeting a large number of mobile users. When a victim returns the call, they are connected to a premium-rate service, which has high rates, even for brief conversations. These high rates can lead to unexpectedly high phone bills, and the scammers profit from a portion of these fees. The scam is designed to make it difficult to detect, with the international number appearing harmless at first glance.</div>
<div>To avoid falling victim to this scam, it's crucial to recognize the pattern and understand how scammers operate.<br><br>
How to Protect Yourself</div>  
    <ul>  
        <li><strong>Avoid calling back unknown international numbers:</strong> If you receive an incoming call from a number starting with a country code other than +91, it is an international call. Refrain from calling back unknown international numbers to avoid unnecessary charges.</li>  
        <li><strong>Stay informed and spread the word:</strong> Awareness is key to avoiding scams. Share this information with your friends, family, and colleagues to help protect others.</li>  
        <li><strong>Block suspicious numbers:</strong> If you identify a suspicious international number, block it immediately to prevent future attempts.</li>  
        <li><strong>Question unsolicited calls:</strong> Always be cautious of unsolicited calls from unknown local numbers. Do not receive any international calls from unknown numbers. Verify the legitimacy of calls before taking any action.</li>  
          
</ul>  
    <div>The Premium Rate Service Scam is a growing concern for mobile users. By staying informed and vigilant, you can protect yourself from unexpected charges. At Jio, we are committed to helping you stay aware of scams related to mobile services, and this article is part of our initiative to keep you informed. We encourage you to not only protect yourself but also share this information with others, creating a safer mobile experience for all.</div>

Beware of Premium Rate Service Scam

<div class="pad--top pt-2">
<div>The types of activities performed matter more than the time spent online. For example, data-rich activities, such as streaming video, cloud backup, tethering through hotspot will use more data than sending emails or browsing. Read '<strong>Curb causes of high data usage</strong>' in Helpful tips to view types of usage which consume high data.
</div>
</div>

View data consumed as per the time spent on the internet

Know data consumption against time spent on internet

<div class="pad--top pt-2">Let’s take a look at how to curb unnecessary data usage.
<ul class="type-decimal">
	<li>Video Streaming Apps / Sites:<br>
	Streaming of videos, especially with high resolution will cause high data usage. The higher the quality of video, higher will be the data consumption. Read ‘Manage data used for video streaming’ in Helpful tips to learn how to set preferred video resolution and control data usage</li>
	<li>Video streaming on Facebook:<br>
	When you are watching livestreams on Facebook for long duration, data consumption is higher. Facebook videos which auto play while scrolling through the timeline also contribute to data usage</li>
	<li>Video downloads on WhatsApp:<br>
	Multiple video downloads on WhatsApp consume high amount of data usage. If your WhatsApp setting allows auto-download of videos, this could consume even higher data. Tip: Open WhatsApp and click on Settings (Top Right hand corner). Select Data Usage option and choose the type of content for auto-download.</li>
	<li>Cloud / Online Backup :<br>
	Applications such as Dropbox, Google Photos, Google Drive, iCloud allow automatic schedules for backing up and syncing your data such as photos, videos and music to cloud. Recheck the settings to ensure only critical information is updated, as this could quickly use your data quota.</li>
	<li>Tethering / Wi-Fi hotspot :
	<ul class="type-upper-alpha">
		<li>When you make your mobile a Wi-Fi hotspot and connect other devices, the amount of data used completely depends on the type of content accessed by those consumption devices.<br>
		Tip: Ensure you have a complex Wi-Fi password to prevent unauthorised access.</li>
		<li>When you make your device a Wi-Fi hotspot &amp; the other connected devices connect to your device over Wi-Fi; the Wi-Fi related Auto update setting comes into effect in the connected devices. Most devices have settings which enable auto update of Apps &amp; perform online backup whenever connected to Wi-Fi.<br>
		Tip: Change settings which allow ‘auto update on Wi-Fi’ on connected devices and choose to update only when needed.</li>
	</ul>
	</li>
	<li>App updates<br>
	Check your Mobile Playstore / Appstore settings. If “Auto-Update Apps” option is enabled on Mobile data, the apps get updated automatically whenever there is a new version available. Certain Apps consume as high as 150MB for updates.<br>
	In Android, go to Playstore, Settings and set Auto update preference.<br>
	In Apple devices, go to Settings, iTunes &amp; App stores to set auto download preference.<br>
	Tip: Set option as ‘Do not Auto-update Apps’, so that you update Apps Manually as per your need</li>
	<li>System updates<br>
	Android or iOS device software updates consume high data consumption. It is recommend to perform these updates when you have sufficient data balance</li>
	<li>Audio Streaming<br>
	While Data used through audio streaming is much lower than video streaming, regular audio streaming on Apps such as JioSaavn, Gaana, Hungama, etc for longer duration will consume high data</li>
</ul>
</div>

Curb causes of high data usage

<div class="pad--top pt-2">
<ul>
<li>Every active device connected to your Wi-Fi uses bandwidth. </li>
<li>When too many devices are simultaneously running heavy applications (like 4K streaming or online gaming), it leads to network congestion and slows down the connection for everyone. </li>
<li>Disconnect or pause unused devices to reserve bandwidth for critical tasks.</li>

Quick Fixes for OTT Apps on Jio Set-Top Box

<div class="pad--top pt-2">
<ul>
<li>Common household appliances like microwaves, cordless phones, and Bluetooth speakers operate on frequencies (often 2.4GHz) that can directly interfere with your Wi-Fi signal. </li>

<p>Call forwarding scams are increasing in India. In this scam, fraudsters ask people to dial certain codes. These codes secretly forward your incoming calls to another number.<br>
  Because of this, scammers can receive your OTP calls and misuse your accounts.</p>

  <h3 class="j-heading j-text-heading-xs"><strong><u>How Do Scammers Do This?</u></strong></h3>

  <p>These are the common tricks used by scammers:</p>

  <ol>
    <li>
      <strong>The "Delivery Boy" Trick:</strong><br>
      A caller says he is from a courier company and says, "I cannot find your address. Please dial a code starting with ** and a 10-digit mobile number so I can see your location".
    </li>
    <li>
      <strong>The "Network Booster" Trick:</strong><br>
      A fake agent says, "Your internet is slow". Dial this short code to fix the network.
    </li>
    <li>
      <strong>The "KYC Update" Trick:</strong><br>
      The caller says, "Your SIM will be blocked in 24 hours". Dial this code to complete KYC.
    </li>
  </ol>

  <p><strong>What happens next</strong>: As a result, the scammer selects "Forgot Password" on your WhatsApp or bank app and chooses "Get OTP via call." Since your calls are forwarded, the scammer gets the OTP and can misuse your account.</p>

  <p><strong>Remember —</strong> Real and trusted companies never ask you to dial such codes.</p>

  <h3 class="j-heading j-text-heading-xs"><strong><u>How to protect yourself</u></strong></h3>

  <ol type="i">
    <li>
      <strong>Verify the Caller:</strong> Be careful with unknown callers. If anyone says they are from Customer Care or a delivery service and asks you to dial any code — especially one starting with ** and a 10-digit number — do not dial any codes and disconnect the call, block the number, and report it as a scam.
    </li>
    <li>
      <strong>Check Forwarding Status:</strong> Check whether call forwarding is active on your number -></br> Open Phone Settings &gt; Call Settings &gt; Call Forwarding
    </li>
    <li>
      <strong>Stay informed and spread the word:</strong> Knowing about scams helps you stay safe. Share this message with your family and friends.
    </li>
  </ol>

  <h3 class="j-heading j-text-heading-xs"><strong><u>What to do if you have been scammed?</u></strong></h3>

  <ul>
    <li>Change passwords of banking and payment apps</li>
    <li>Report cyber fraud by calling 1930 or visit <u><strong><a href="https://cybercrime.gov.in" target="_blank">https://cybercrime.gov.in</a></strong></li>
  </ul></u>
