Beware of PAN Frauds:
The increasing importance of PAN has increased the likeliness of PAN
Card identity theft. The safeguarding of the physical copy of the PAN
card no longer assures that your card is not being misused. As a
majority of transactions demand a photocopy of your PAN card, or
simply quoting the Permanent Account Number, it is very easy for your
information to be misused for high ticket purchases or benami property
transactions. A copy of your PAN card or simply its number can be
quoted in transactions, which you are not even a part of.
Example of how your information can be misused: Recently, a consumer
activist group revealed that the PAN card copy used in Railway ticket
Tatkal bookings were misused by several jewelers When an individual
produces his PAN to book the Tatkal tickets, this information is fed
in the Indian Railways system and also displayed on the ticket,
reservation chart and train coaches. Unscrupulous jewelers steal this
information from such public displays and use it to furnish tax
collected details while they sell jewels of very high value to
high-net worth individuals who do not wish to produce their PAN.
