Analysis
The portal sends OTPs and emails to the mobile and email entered, which a fraudster controls, but the PAN holder may still get alerts. Check using Search Taxpayer by PAN on gst.gov.in to see any GSTIN on your PAN. Report through the GST grievance system and to the jurisdictional officer, and file a police complaint for identity misuse. Keep copies, since this protects you if a notice later reaches you for that GSTIN.
