WhatsApp Scam Alert: Punjab Land Records Chairman, PMLN-MPA Number Hacked

The official WhatsApp number of Chaudhry Tariq Subhani, Chairman of the Punjab Land Records Authority, has been hacked. The hacker is impersonating the senior official to contact his friends and associates, requesting money under false pretenses.

“To all friends, relatives, and respected acquaintances, I wish to inform you that my WhatsApp number has been hacked. If you receive any messages from my number requesting money or financial assistance, please do not respond under any circumstances. I kindly request everyone to take this message seriously and ignore any suspicious communication coming from my number,” said Chaudhry Tariq Subhani (MPA).

These incidents show that government officers and other people in high-ranking positions need to be extra careful with digital security. Their phones and WhatsApp accounts hold sensitive official data, which, if compromised, can lead to serious consequences.

WhatsApp scams are becoming increasingly common, targeting people by impersonating trusted contacts. Many individuals have already fallen victim to such fraud. To stay safe, avoid responding to unknown messages or calls or clicking suspicious links on WhatsApp.
