Trai has asked telecom operators in India to warn subscribers about fake messages being sent in its name. The messages seek a no objection certificate for tower installation or verification of existing mobile numbers. Telecom operators will share an advisory message from Trai, cautioning subscribers about fraudulent messages and calls. The message should be considered potentially fraudulent and can be reported to the national cybercrime reporting portal. Telecom operators will send the cautionary message to every subscriber, starting from January 1, and will schedule texts in regional languages.
