Important Notice/ Advisory on Fraudulent Calls

 

    It has been brought to the notice of the Embassy that some fraudsters are spoofing Embassy’s Numbers to make calls aimed at cheating people.  Such caller claims to be an employee of the Embassy and seeks personal information i.e. name, date of birth, credit card details, passport number etc.  The caller may also try to extort money from Indian nationals by inter alia claiming that there are errors in their passports, visa forms, immigration forms etc., which could be rectified by paying money, and at the same time warning that the so called errors, if not rectified, could result in deportation of the individual to India or their imprisonment in Qatar.  In some cases, these fraudsters have also falsely claimed that they received such privileged information from the Embassy or other authorities in India.
