Mumbai Police is quick to pick up on trends to caution people about the latests modus operandi of criminals, with funny videos, memes and images on social media. They are looked at by many, especially the youth, as the ‘coolest’ in the social media world as they present content in a smart, attention-catching way. They have broken the internet in the past with their trendy updates, and now, once again, they have lived up to their ‘cool’ image and have come up with yet another witty video advising people not to fall into the traps of online scams.
Their video post read: “This is not a ‘dilemma’ to be pondered upon! Our police personnel don’t approve of either. Don’t share your personal or banking information with anyone. Be alert.”
The video shows two people, who are representing the scammer and the victim, facing each other and nodding their heads not to approve it. The video has garnered more than two lakh views on Instagram and has received more than 15,000 likes. The comments section has been flooded with people laughing and enjoying the content shown by the department.
Comments like, “You guys are the best social media account in the country” and “Love the way you guys convey your msg with epic ideas & memes” very much express what the followers feel about Mumbai Police.
Earlier also, the department had shared many memes and images that advised people not to share their personal banking information with anyone, but in a funny way that not only effectively conveyed the important message, but also tickled the funny bone of many, cheering them up amidst the humdrum of everyday life.
