Diwali is one of the busiest shopping periods of the year in India, and the surge in digital activity gives cybercriminals more openings. Shoppers may encounter fake shopping websites, phishing messages, payment fraud and malicious applications. Fake e-commerce sites mimic popular brands and are promoted via social media, email, search results and messaging apps, often with abnormally discounted prices. UPI-based payment scams are also a risk.
