Google allows users to edit contact details of shops/banks in Google Maps and Google Search. With this, Google tries to give accurate details to the users. However, fraudsters take advantage of this to change the contact number and address to cheat people. Along with entering wrong contact details in Google search, these thugs also become fake customer care executives. For this, the fraudsters talk to the users exactly like the professionals and do not ask the users for banking and personal details to verify the call.
Frauds ask the users to download the app. These apps can also be remote desktop apps AnyDesk or TeamViewer. With the help of these apps, these hackers get complete access to the users' devices. Not only this, through these apps, these hackers also record every activity done by the user. Along with this, these fraudsters are also adopting UPI scam. You can also try to cheat by sending 'money request' to the users through the UPI application. The only way to avoid hacking by Google search is to not trust the customer care numbers and addresses on Google with eyes closed. It is better that you do your banking or any other online work from the company's official website.
