Posted on Pune Police’s official Twitter and Instagram accounts, this image was shared on August 16. “We suggest you consider a ‘break’ with everyone who asks you for your OTP or passwords. #CyberSafety,” reads the text shared alongside the image.

The photograph has the words, “We don’t share OTP with even Our Trusted People,” written on it.

The play on words is a smart way of suggesting that OPTs and passwords shouldn’t be shared with anybody, even those we consider closest to us.
