What to do when you receive such an email
1. First of all, don’t panic. Because this is a fake notice. Whenever any legal action is taken, an email is not sent just like that. Negotiations take place and the biggest thing is that the court always posts the hard copy. Therefore do not trust such mails.
2. Do not click on any link given in the email. Because scammers want you to panic and click on that link, so that they can control your entire system.
3. Whenever such mail comes, immediately forward it to cybercrime.gov.in.
