Fake Dream11 messages and links
Fake Dream11 big-win, KYC hold and double-deposit messages ask for fees before withdrawals. Check your balance in the app.
Dream11 is an Indian fantasy sports app where users pick virtual teams for real cricket, football and kabaddi matches and join paid or free contests. Because many people use it, scammers pretend to be Dream11 in SMS, WhatsApp and email messages. This page lists the lies they usually tell and how to check before you act.
Lines used in fake Dream11 messages
- Dream11: you won Rs 50,000 in the mega contest, pay the tax first to withdraw
- Your winnings are on hold, complete KYC on this link to release them
- Get a guaranteed team prediction from our expert for a small fee
- Deposit Rs 1,000 now and we will double it as a bonus
How to verify it yourself
Check your balance, winnings and KYC status inside the Dream11 app only. Any tax on winnings is handled by the platform itself, so you are never asked to pay a person to withdraw. Withdrawals come to your own verified bank account or wallet. A tipster cannot guarantee a result, and modded apps are not official. Use only the app from your phone's official store, and take help from the in-app support section. Play only if you are of legal age and in a state where it is permitted.
Quick checklist
- Do not tap links or call numbers inside the message.
- Open the official app, or type the official website yourself, and look for the same notice.
- Never share an OTP, PIN, CVV or password with anyone, including "staff".
- If money moved, call 1930 and your bank at once.
