Prime Minister Narendra Modi releases Rs 100 rupee coin in memory of Atal Bihari Vajpayee

On the eve of Atal Bihari Vajpayee's 94th birth anniversary, Prime Minister Narendra Modi released a 100 rupee coin in the memory of the former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee to honour the late leader, who passed away in August.

"Atal Ji wanted democracy to be supreme. He built the Jana Sangh. But, when the time came to rescue our democracy he and others went to Janata Party. Likewise, when the choice was between remaining in power or comprising on ideology, he left Janata Party and formed the BJP," the PM Narendra Modi said.

Prime Minister Modi said Vajpayee as a speaker was unparalleled. "When he spoke, the nation spoke... when he spoke the nation listened," he said.

The mind is not ready to believe that Vajpayee is no longer alive. Though he was away from public glare for nearly a decade due to ill health, the way people gave him a farewell on his demise showed the mark he had created in people's minds, PM said.

Commemorative coins are usually issued to celebrate some special occasion or to mark a special event. They also have been issued as a mark of respect towards some distinguished individuals or monument.

The Rs 100 coin, Modi said, is a small effort to show our respect to the former Prime Minister, "whose life is a message for all of us".

Woman loses Rs 1 lakh to ‘Google Search Fraud’: Here's how to stay Safe

Woman loses Rs 1 lakh to ‘Google Search Fraud’

Woman from Seemapuri region of East Delhi did not knew that a simple Google Search mistake could lead to a fraud that would cost her Rs 1 lakh. This is because scamsters have now found a new way to find potential victims through Google search. Interestingly, this is not a hack or vulnerability from Google's end but a simple misuse of a service that Google made to help internet users.

Here is everything you need to know about these kinds of fraud - Google Search Fraud:

• The woman, who works with a private firm, was having problems with her e-wallet account and started searching for the customer care number. She searched for the customer care phone number on Google to report about a wrong transaction in her e-wallet account. The woman called a phone number she found on a website after searching on Google assuming its the official customer care phone number. It turns out that the customer care phone number was of a fraudster who posed as a customer care representative of the e-wallet company. Assuming that it is the official customer care phone number, the woman provided her card details to get a refund from the e-wallet company. Before realising anything fishy, the woman’s bank account got robbed of Rs 1 lakh.

This same fraud recently happened for EPFO Provident Fund. People called a wrong number and got scammed. In this scam, people calls on the number appearing on Google, thinking it to be that of a government official.

What is Google Search Fraud?

• Scamsters change the contact details with their phone number to trap people on Google Search. Believing that Google shows the correct contact number of banks, people call the scamster instead after searching on Google. The scamster in disguise of a bank employee asks for personal details from the caller to verify the call. Sometimes, scamster redirect to fake IVRs to make the call appear real. To get services on mobile, gullible users share card details, ATM PIN, and other details.
