FAQ :
The CBIC is warning taxpayers about a scam involving fake GST violation notices being circulated online by fraudsters.
The fake notices mimic government communications, using official-looking formats, forged CGST logos, and fake Document Identification Numbers (DINs) to appear legitimate.
Red flags include forged summons, fraudulent use of CGST logos and seals, fake DINs, and misleading language designed to pressure recipients.
Taxpayers should verify the DIN of any notice received on the official CBIC portal at www.cbic.gov.in. Genuine notices will have a valid DIN that matches the records.
If a notice is suspicious, taxpayers should call the Cyber Helpline at 1030 or lodge a complaint on the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal: www.cybercrime.gov.in.
