evidence: A false message is being circulated on social media platforms which says that pressing the ‘Cancel’ button twice on an ATM machine can prevent PIN theft. The message is claimed to be Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) tip to prevent ATM PIN thefts. The government has now clarified that the message is fake and misinformation via a Twitter post . "A post falsely attributed to @RBI claims that pressing 'cancel' twice on ATM before a transaction can prevent PIN theft #PIBFactCheck..The statement is #FAKE and has NOT been issued by RBI", reads a tweet shared by the official Twitter handle of PIB Fact Check. [...] As being circulated online, the message emphasises that people should make it a habit to press cancel twice before every transaction. It goes on to state that if anyone has set up the keypad to steal your PIN code, this will cancel the set up.
