Getting the PF account completely transferred will reduce the possibility of fraud and at the same time the employee will also get benefit in pension.
Apart from this, EPFO believes that those employees whose old companies have been closed need to be more cautious and careful, so the subscribers should get the Provident Fund money of their old companies transferred in the new company as soon as they change the job.
EPFO has also advised its subscribers to keep checking their account from time to time so that they can get information related to interest and balance contribution.
Fraudsters usually use long closed accounts for frauds. However, after the recent fraud, EPFO will further strengthen its system and will make sure that such incidents so not happen in future. As per the information EPFO has more than 6 crore subscribers.
