Beware of Mobile Tower Frauds

Fraudsters posing as Telecom Service Providers (TSP)/Infrastructure Providers (IP) executives are approaching property owners and promising hefty monthly rental payments to install mobile towers on their properties. They ask for a security deposit in exchange.

This is a Fraud.
Please note Department of Telecommunications (DoT) or Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) are not directly or indirectly involved in the leasing of places for installation of mobile towers.

Be Informed, Be Safe
