The Aadhaar card is very useful for Indian citizens. It is used for both government and non-government purposes. Many places require people to provide a photocopy of their Aadhaar card. It's worth noting that even a photocopy can be used to defraud you.

Cybercriminals can issue fake SIM cards in your name or try to hack into your bank account. Therefore, here are some things to keep in mind when sharing Aadhaar photocopies. Whenever you have to present your identity card at a public place, always use a masked Aadhaar.

The first eight digits of the Aadhaar card are hidden, preventing fraud. Even if a physical photocopy of the Aadhaar card must be provided, it should be clearly stated with a cross-line in blue or black ink. This will prevent anyone from misusing the Aadhaar card.
