Fraudulent Phone Calls

 

DO NOT FALL VICTIM OF FRAUDULENT CALLS CLAIMING TO BE FROM

THE INDIAN EMBASSY / CONSULATES OF INDIA

Calls Incidents of fraudulent phone calls have also been brought to the Consulate’s notice. Indian citizens have received phone calls mentioning about their visa applications or immigration processes and asking fraudulently for ‘fines’ to be paid. It may be noted that no such requests are made by the Indian Embassy/Consulates on the phone for transfer of money electronically as payment towards ‘fines’. Extra caution may be exercised when any phone call is received demanding electronic transfer of money.

Please be advised that no such calls are made by the Embassy of India, Berlin or our Consulates in Hamburg, Frankfurt and Munich. Please ignore such calls and do not fall prey to this scam
