Cyber criminals are posing as Booth Level Officers (BLO) to defraud citizens during the ongoing Special Summary Revision of electoral rolls. Scammers call victims claiming technical errors in their voter applications and ask for an OTP to 'fix' the issue. Once the OTP is shared, money is stolen from the victim's bank account.
