Scam Alert 🚨
Since there are many new aspirants also associated with this channel, we would like to address something. It has often been brought to our notice that some telegram channels are offering paid courses for UPSC and State PSC exams with forged marksheets and without proper credentials of the people launching those courses. Hence, it is a request to all the members of our community that they must verify the credentials multiple times with adequate proof and then only enrol for such courses. Ask the people running such courses to share their original marksheets or e-summon letters with their name. Always consult your trusted seniors or friends to verify the same. Do not become prey to this kind of phishing where your fears, emotions and hard earned money are being used to monetise scams.
Happy learning and all the best to everyone!
Since there are many new aspirants also associated with this channel, we would like to address something. It has often been brought to our notice that some telegram channels are offering paid courses for UPSC and State PSC exams with forged marksheets and without proper credentials of the people launching those courses. Hence, it is a request to all the members of our community that they must verify the credentials multiple times with adequate proof and then only enrol for such courses. Ask the people running such courses to share their original marksheets or e-summon letters with their name. Always consult your trusted seniors or friends to verify the same. Do not become prey to this kind of phishing where your fears, emotions and hard earned money are being used to monetise scams.
Happy learning and all the best to everyone!
