Dear Sir,
I received a phone call from some unknown person disclosing his identity as a Airtel representative asking me to contact one Mr Raj Verma, Cheif Supervisor, Mumbai on Phone no. [protected].
On contacting Mr Raj Verma on above mentioned Phone no. I was informed that Airtel Digital TV has come up with some Scheme and I have won cash prize of Rs.10,00,000/- (Ten Lacs) on using my Airtel mobile no. [protected] through a lucky draw. To claim the prize I was told that I will have to buy Dish TV Recharge coupons worth Rs.15,600/-, however, thinking that since this a promotional scheme by Airtel Digital, I purchased recharge coupons worth Rs.15,600/- of Airtel Digital TV. Pl note that I am not a Airtel Digital TV subscriber. As advised by Mr Raj Verma I scratched all the Recharge cards and informed him the recharge PIN numbers.
I was further told by Mr Raj Verma that representative from Airtel Gurgaon would visit us today i.e. on 22nd May,2010 at 12.30 pm with a State Bank Of India Cheque no. 7409000/88 towards the prize money. However, I was again contacted by Mr Raj Verma at 8.30 am this morning asking me to purchase additional recharge coupons of DISH TV for Rs.35,300/-. This amount, as explained by him was towards 50% of Income Tax payable against the prize money. The balance 50% will be borne by Airtel.
I got suspicious and noticed that the phone no. of Mr Raj Verma is not of Mumbai as it is starting with international code (+92) and called him again to inform that I would get this amount (Rs.35,300/-) deducted from either the prize money or the cash which was to be finally reimbursed to me by Airtel representative equal to the amount of recharge coupons which I have purchased. On mentioning this Mr Raj Verma sounded agitated and asked me to buy coupons of any value and asked me to inform the coupon nos. to him before he deputes his Gurgaon Representatives. I decided not to buy any more coupons and to report the matter to Airtel for needful investigation & action.
Since, I have purchased Digital TV recharge coupons worth Rs.15,550/- and have already scratched them (as explained above) I request you to kindly advise me a way to recover the cost of these recharge coupons, you are also requested to Block these cards to prevent misuse. I furnish below the pin nos of these coupons :
