  2. Anything can be possible. You can at least ensure that you don’t commit any negligence. Do not handover copy of PAN to any one for no reason. Whenever you are submitting PAN for any purpose, writing down the purpose (just online) touching to the edges of PAN or little across of it and keep no much space between image of PAN and signature or the note you mention about the purpose.
