No you won’t Get Jio SIM and Lyf Mobile at Rs 199 It’s Scam

Reliance has started extending its Jio Preview offer to more smartphone makers which is also available for all 4G Phones at Reliance Digital stores Now some users are getting WhatsApp Texts About  Reliance Jio and Lyf at only Rs 199 . The offer being made: Get a Reliance Jio SIM and a Lyf branded smartphone at Rs 199. Now the company has not made any such official announcements, and it’s safe to assume contests like these will not be announced on WhatsApp.

The message, which comes in Hindi, says the following, “Blockbuster sale on Lyf phone: At only Rs 199, get a 4G Lyf smartphone along with 4G unlimited internet, free calling for complete three months.” A website link is provided as well, which is “reliance-4g-lyf.com.”

This is not the official Reliance Lyf or Jio website, and our suggestion would be not to open this link inside your smartphone or personal computer. The scam also promises cash on delivery for the ‘lucky winners.’

 Onece You opened the link on a desktop browser. users are asked to enter a contest and submit our name, mobile number and choose a smartphone colour (Black or White).The next step asks users to share this message with 8 WhatsApp groups, and we just kept hitting Share on WhatsApp and for some reason it assumed we had done the WhatsApp sharing.

Eventually this message appears on the screen, “Download Our Partner App, Open App & Click on ACTIVATE NOW& Confirm with your Coupon code. Your Coupon => REJI2180.” Since we’ve not tried this on our phone, we can’t download and check this app, but there’s a good chance it could be a malicious one.

If you look at ICANN’s domain search, it shows the link is registered to an individual in Jaipur, Rajasthan, although it can’t be confirmed whether this is a real person or a fake identity that has been created to run this charade. It says the website was created on August 10. This is clear  scam better to stay away from this tricks
