New Fraud Regarding BISP 8171 | Complete Guide to Avoid

BISP 8171 Program

Benazir Income Support Program (BISP 8171) is Pakistan’s largest social welfare scheme through which financial assistance is provided to millions of deserving women and families. However, in recent times, some fraudsters are adopting new methods to cheat the public. At present, the most common method is that they grab the money of deserving people on the pretext of “opening a Ghar Ghar Wallet or Easy Paisa account”.

This article will inform you about this important issue so that you can protect your rights and money.

How Do Fraudsters Commit Fraud?

Many people use the name of BISP to visit the homes of deserving women. They claim that the government has instructed to open a new wallet or Easy Paisa account so that the scholarship money can be transferred directly there.

But in reality, they open an account in your name by copying your identity card and fingerprints. Later, as soon as the scholarship money comes, they withdraw it themselves and the real beneficiary does not get anything.

What Does The Real BISP Team Do?

It is very important to understand that the real BISP team never comes to your house and opens an Easy Paisa or Jazz Cash account.

• BISP only registers you at verified centers or campsites.
• The real team has an official card and a verified list.
• You always receive an official message from 8171.

Important Instructions For The Public

Always remember these few instructions to keep yourself and your money safe:

• If someone comes to your house and asks to open an Easy Paisa or Jazz Cash account, be suspicious immediately.
• Do not give your personal information such as your ID card number, fingerprints or mobile account details to a stranger.
• Do not trust anyone without verification from the real BISP team.
• If you suspect someone, immediately contact the BISP helpline at 0800-26477.

Why Is It Important To Be Careful?

BISP aims to provide direct assistance to the deserving. But if you are a little careless, your hard-earned and rightful money can end up in the hands of fraudsters. Remember that the government has not introduced any method under which you need to create a new wallet or account at home.

Conclusion

The Benazir Income Support Program is a support for millions of families, but fraudsters are also active with it. Therefore, it is important that everyone is vigilant and provide their information only through official sources. Do not trust anyone without the actual BISP team and call the helpline in case of any doubt.

Protect your rights, and remember that a little caution can save you from big losses.
