The Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) has introduced Digital KYC as a convenient and secure way for members to verify their identity and complete KYC (Know Your Customer) formalities. This online process eliminates the need for physical documentation and manual verification, streamlining the KYC process and making it more efficient.
Story 1:
A member named John tried to complete his KYC online but couldn't remember his Aadhaar number. After several unsuccessful attempts, he realized he had been using his PAN card number instead of his Aadhaar number. Lesson: Double-check your information before submitting.
Story 2:
Mary received an OTP for her KYC verification but accidentally shared it with her friend, thinking she needed help. Her friend, being mischievous, used the OTP to activate their own EPF account. Lesson: Keep your OTP confidential.
Story 3:
Tom was excited about the convenience of online KYC. However, he used a public Wi-Fi connection and his personal information was compromised. Lesson: Use a secure internet connection for KYC verification.
