Someone else's Aadhar linked to my number

Just pointing out why one should be careful about handing aadhar number and related info, since the same can be abused if not careful enough.

Just today itself, a Delhivery courier boy was demanding Aadhaar or PAN numbers to verify identity. He was like everyone gives us their aadhaar why won't you. If everyone starts dishing out their govt ids for 1k online purchases then I dunno what's confidential anymore.

I'd really surprised if my Aadhaar isn't already leaked in some public data.

Try creating or login into your account and only then you might be able to see the picture if there are 2 identities on a single aadhar.
You can also ring them and check or write to them in detail

I have more than 300+ ABHA linked with my single number. Some genius operator added my number to all the beneficiaries he made the card for.
This is just a small case of how a Gov. website cannot detect an already registered number where any other websites(swiggy, Zomato,etc) can detect duplication and prevent you from re-using the same number.
Same probably would be the case of Aadhaar. It has become more like a security thread than a convenience.
