Jaipur, May 1, 2025 — The Rajasthan police report reveals that these fraudsters are using messaging platforms like Telegram and WhatsApp to approach NEET UG 2025 aspirants. They falsely claim to have access to the NEET UG 2025 paper and demand payments ranging from ₹50,000 to ₹70,000. Some even pose as insiders from exam printing facilities or coaching institutes to build credibility.
According to officials, these claims are completely fake. The NEET UG 2025 exam is being conducted with a highly secured and confidential protocol, making any leak virtually impossible. The scammers are simply exploiting the stress and anxiety of students during this crucial time.
In one instance, a Telegram group with over 20,000 members was found promoting fake NEET PG and UG paper leaks, collecting money from desperate candidates. These groups use fake screenshots, forged documents, and false promises of guaranteed selection to deceive students and parents.
The Rajasthan Cyber Crime Branch has urged all aspirants to remain vigilant and avoid engaging with such sources. Sharing roll numbers, application IDs, passwords, or payment details with unverified individuals or platforms can result in identity theft, exam disqualification, or financial fraud.
