Tip for parents: a WhatsApp call or message says "Congratulations! You've won ₹25 lakh in the KBC lottery. Just pay a small processing fee or GST to release your prize."

It's a scam. You can't win a lottery you never entered, and no real prize asks you to pay first. Don't pay, don't share Aadhaar or bank details, and block the number. You can report it at cybercrime.gov.in or call 1930.

Has anyone in your family got a "you've won" message like this?
