Investigation:
To fact-check such viral claims, we first checked at the link provided in the message. The link given in this message does not seem to be of any government website or department. This is a short URL and is evidently suspicious. If it was a government scheme, there would have been a complete link to a government website, in which gov.in would have been written at the end.
In this regard, we did an open search on Google using keywords. We did not find any such news on any reliable website, which could confirm this claim. For more information, we also searched the website of the Ministry of Labor and Employment, Government of India, but could not find any such circular or press release.
We spoke to cyber expert and founder of Indian Cyber Army, Kislay Chaudhary, in this regard. He said, “This is a phishing link. PIB has also warned about this. This message is fake. Cyber thugs lure people into their net by sending phishing links with such tempting messages. By clicking on such a link, your data can be hacked. For this, always check the link carefully and confirm it by visiting the official website.“
We scanned the profile of Facebook user ‘Sonu Kumar Shaw‘ who shared the fake message. According to this, he is a resident of Howrah and has around 5,000 friends.
Conclusion: The message about giving Rs 6,000 per month to unemployed people under Pradhan Mantri Berojgar Bhatta Yojana 2022 is fake. Along with this message, a phishing link is going viral. Cyber experts have advised not to click on any such link as it could lead to user’s data being hacked.
