Since yesterday, i.e., 17 May 2021, I believe someone is impersonating me and buying Reliance Jio mobile numbers with my name and email address. So far three mobile numbers were issued by Reliance Jio to whoever this party is, one of which has been activated. I realized this problem when I received the following three email notifications from Jio at my email address. I am including the date and subject of the emails only for the sake of brevity.

For the record, I have never made any purchase or any transaction with Reliance Jio or Reliance Digital ever. Now out of these three orders, two were cancelled eventually. I learnt this from the following two email notifications from Jio:

In addition to the emails mentioned above, I also received an email from Reliance Digital for each order mentioned above. It appears that whoever is doing this is buying these Jio mobile numbers online via Reliance Digital. Here is a summary of all the orders and the mobile numbers issued so far:

See the fourth row which is an order still in progress where this party has used the new mobile number from the third row to purchase yet another Jio mobile number!
