Hi, I also got the similar call from One of the person named Mukesh Garg. What is this going on. This is either Bag It Today's fault or Kotak Life Insurance. We need to bring them down. Can we file FIR against both of them or can we file case against the person who called me and provided the details?How can so many frauds are happening without involving them. They are asking to deposit to "Kotak Life Insurance".One
thing, we can do is not to pay them but this is not a solution. I can
be saved but how about all. They will try on everyone and someone will
surely be trapped. I am giving all the details of the person and his message.Mobile Numer: +91 [protected]Mukesh Garg, C/o Kotak Life Insurance, 203, 2nd Floor, Vinayak Business Center, Fatehpura, Udaipur Rajasthan, PIN- 3130011 Passport Size PhotoPancard CopyAddress Proof CopyCurrent Date Cheque In FAvour of Kotal Mahindra Old Mutual Life Insurance Ltd, of 35, 000. cancel cheque.P.S.

Hi,

I am Jagajeev Menon from THRISSUR, KERALA.

I too received 2 calls, first from number [protected] I am not sure of this number saying that my file is forwarded from BagItToday as I am winner of 4.5 lakh rupees and settlement will happen through Kotak Life insurance. The first call was made by a woman did not mention her name. I immediately stopped the call and said not interested once she said 10% of prize money needs to be deposited with kotak life insurance. The second call yesterday from a woman from this number [protected] at about 1 p.m. saying that my file is forwarded from BagItToday as I am winner of 4.5 lakh rupees and settlement will happen through HDFC Life. She initially asked did anybody called me before regarding this. I said no since I want to know the intensity of the fraudgery I just proceeded further and she verified my name, date of birth and said some documents needs to be required with 10% of prize money needs to be deposited as security deposit. Processing period is 45 days and after 8 to 10 days security deposit will be refunded.

She said following documents needs to be sent:
1. Photo.
2. Address Proof.
3. PAN card.
4. Cancelled cheque of the bank in which the winning amount to be credited.
5. Rs 45000 cheque in favour HDFC Life.

She has provided my File No and said not to disclose to anybody and HDFC Life people will call you and verify your file no, date of birth etc.


Exactly today October 7, 2014, I received a call from [protected] at 1:33 p.m. from a man and he asks the file no and date of birth and immediately I said I am not interested and said I don't have enough money with me and also said there is no such rule to pay security deposit for prize money. He said the file will be cancelled and I said okay and ends the call.


Please help finding such frauds and punish them.


Warm Regards,

Jagajeev Menon
