Editorial Policy

Our standards

We write for readers who may be anxious or in a hurry. Guides use plain language, short steps and clear warnings. We do not publish unverified claims, invented statistics or case numbers.

How we verify

  • Reporting channels such as 1930 and cybercrime.gov.in are checked against official sources before publication.
  • Rules and rights are linked to the regulator or government page where possible.
  • Each guide shows when it was last updated.

Independence

We do not accept payment to change what a guide says about a scam, bank or app.

Corrections

If you find an error, tell us through the contact page. We correct confirmed mistakes promptly and note the change on the page.
