Taf.cop.Dgtelecom.Gov In is a government-operated portal designed to monitor and address fraud-related concerns within the Telecom Department. Tafcop is an acronym for Telecom Analytics for Fraud Management and Consumer Protection.
In the past, acquiring a new SIM card often led to rampant fraud, with individuals obtaining SIM cards under false identities. However, this issue has been largely mitigated through the introduction of eKYC procedures involving fingerprint verification.
Taf.cop.Dgtelecom.Gov In has been established by the Government of India to safeguard consumers against identity theft and to oversee activities within the Telecom department. Users can access this Portal to report inactive numbers that have not been used for an extended period. Telecommunication service providers will then be alerted to these reports and can take appropriate action, including blocking or deactivating the reported numbers. This portal offers a comprehensive solution for resolving various issues related to mobile numbers, ensuring consumer protection and fraud management.
