India’s markets regulator issues an advisory warning about a “boss scam,” a form of cyber fraud that targets senior executives, according to NDTV and Channel NewsAsia. The regulator says it acts after receiving inputs from the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C), which reports an increase in such incidents. The advisory alerts firms and relevant stakeholders to be cautious about phishing or similar tactics used to impersonate senior personnel and to solicit payments or sensitive information. It also points to the risk that attackers may use official-looking communications and urgency to extract money or credentials from targets. While the outlets describe the advisory as a warning to prevent further losses, the reports do not cite specific companies, firms, or recent case details. The regulator’s action is framed as a preventative step based on the cybercrime assessment from I4C, urging stakeholders to review internal controls and enhance awareness to reduce exposure to these scams.
