Additionally, these fraudulent websites may have names and internet addresses (URLs) using the word ‘nutrafy’ in them, for example: nutrafy.online.com. Although such websites pretend to be associated with Nutrafy by using similar-looking and similar-sounding names, they are not authorized by Nutrafy Wellness.

⭐ Fake Calls Or SMS To Customers
Often, customers may receive calls from unknown numbers. The callers may speak English, Hindi or any other language. They may lure you with information that you have won ‘free gifts’ or that your mobile number has been selected through a ‘lucky draw’, etc.
This is how such criminals operate:
- In order to avail of these gifts, you will be asked to reveal sensitive personal or financial information or credentials such as your bank account numbers, electronic wallet details, credit/debit card information, CVV, PIN or OTP.
- They may also lure you to a website that appears similar to Nutrafy Wellness or send you a fake/ fabricated certificate.
- They may claim to be Nutrafy Wellness employees or partners of Nutrafy and may display fake identity cards as proof. It is easy to fabricate such documents in order to make you believe that they are genuine.
- You may also be asked to transfer money to certain digital wallets to claim prizes or gifts. Note that these accounts are not managed by Nutrafy, but by fraudsters who want to cheat you.
⭐ Phishing ( Fake Emails ):
‘Phishing’ is a fraudulent attempt to obtain sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details for malicious reasons by disguising as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. Phishing emails are sent by fraudsters. The emails may ask you to visit malicious links through which your personal and/or financial information can be obtained and be used without your consent to carry out fraudulent transactions. You may lose money, as well as personal and sensitive information. Your systems such as desktop computers, laptops or mobile phones can get infected or compromised by malware/viruses upon opening or clicking on the links in such emails.
⭐ Fake online games/websites (discount coupons/gift vouchers/offers/online games):
Online scams of this type reach out to customers, asking them to play games such as ‘spin the wheel,’ which promise free gifts, cash prizes, and other tempting bait. The players are often asked to share the game with their contacts to be able to avail the prize, which, of course, never materializes. Users are made to part with sensitive personal information such as their email id, address and mobile phone number. By participating, you are at risk of fraud.
⭐ OFFLINE FRAUDS -- IMPORTANT INFORMATION THAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
Now that you are aware of how online frauds work, here’s what you should also know about frauds that are perpetrated outside of the internet and mobile world.
Fake offers from fraudulent Marketplace Sellers. Sometimes, when you take delivery of an order you placed on Nutrafy Wellness, you may receive a pamphlet or an insert, which asks you to make future purchases on some other online shopping site or portal to avail higher discounts. Similarly, certain callers who identify themselves as Nutrafy sellers may ask you to place orders directly with them, bypassing the approved payment methods on the Nutrafy site. They may ask for payment to be made directly to them through other channels. Often, they may call you and ask you to cancel your Nutrafy order. Once you agree to any such deals with these fraudulent sellers, Nutrafy will not have any control over any information you might share with them. You are at risk of fraud if you accept such offers.
⭐ Letters and scratch cards received by post or courier
Our security team has observed that certain scamsters may send letters and scratch cards over post and courier. The letter typically declares that you have won a high-value prize like a car or motorcycle. You will be asked to call a phone number mentioned in the letter or directed to a fake website that appears similar to Nutrafy.com. Through these fraudulent means, scammers intend to cheat you of your money by getting access to your financial details or personal information. Please note that such offers and codes are invalid and cannot be applied on the official Nutrafy website, m-site. Further, Nutrafy does not ask you to provide money towards expenses such as registration, tax, etc. if you play and win games on the official Nutrafy app, m-site or website.
⭐ Fake Job Offers
Such scams may involve offers of employment against certain commissions/fees and may appear especially in newspaper advertisements and job portals. Nutrafy never solicits, nor has it authorized any third party, to collect money from potential candidates for employment or contracts (for more information, read this post on Fake Nutrafy job offers).
⭐ Fake Nutrafy Franchises
In this type of scam, the fraudsters typically lure public to set up delivery hubs, etc. in the space available with you for a very lucrative rent. However, they demand certain fees/commission to take this further. They may also set up fake websites where you are asked to register your business. Please note that Nutrafy does not demand any kind of fees or commission for setting up a franchise. If you come across any requests for such payments, you may be dealing with a fraudster. Please report such people or agencies at once.
OTHER METHODS USED BY FRAUDS AND CHEATS
The Nutrafy security team has observed certain other fraud patterns in which customers may receive fraudulent SMS or WhatsApp messages or calls from fraudsters. Fraudsters may mislead customers by pretending to represent Nutrafy. A fraudster may quote your recent order numbers (which may be obtained from discarded packaging brands or covers) and ask customers to pay upfront charges through bank transfer/wallets, etc. They may also ask you to share your bank details, debit/credit card details (including card number, CVV and PIN) and/or certain personal details like Aadhaar or PAN card details. In a few instances, you may be asked to install third-party applications like AnyDesk. The Reserve Bank of India had issued a cautionary alert about the dangers of installing Anydesk.
Such software programs can take control of your mobile phone and access personal information as well as stored financial information. Please be assured that Nutrafy or its authorized representatives will never ask you for these details. Neither will you be asked to install any third-party applications.
In case you receive any such calls or messages, disconnect immediately. Do not share any information with the callers. Please bring such matters to our attention as soon as possible by contacting our customer care number +91-124-6790-466 or by sending a direct message (DM) on Twitter to Nutrafy Support (@nutrafywellness).
