Alert mail proves a big headache for helpline

From Sibanthi Padmanabha DH News Service Mangalore:



In the name of terror, pranksters seem to be taking people for a ride. The ones facing the music are those manning round-the clock toll free number for senior citizens.

A mail is being circulated to netizens for the last two days. It reads "Dear all, In case you come across any suspicious activity, any suspicious movement or have any information to tell to the Anti-Terror Squad, please take a note of the new all India toll-free terror helpline 1090. Your city's police or Anti-Terror Squad will take action as quickly as possible." Toll- free The mail also reminds that the number 1090 is valid all over India and it is toll-free, that can be dialled from mobile phones also. Moreover, the identity of the caller will be kept a secret, it assures. In addition to this, it appeals- "Let us make each and every citizen of India aware about this facility. Kindly forward this mail to as many as people possible." In fact, 1090 is helpline launched by the State government in 2005 in support of the elderly people in crisis.The Mangalore Police have sought the help of the cyber cell to trace the source of the mail. They have sought two days time to find the information.
