[Resolved]  Airtel Dish TV — Fraudulent Calls

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka

Hi- Well, today I have also recieved a miss call from number: [protected]. And did called back them to check who might be this, then the person told me that I have been awarded with 15 lakh Airtel Dish TV lottery and I need to call his supervisor Rihan Patel no:[protected]. When I called him he asked me to deposit a amount of Rs. 15,000 to his compnay's bank account so that I can get my award money of 15 lakh with 10 mnts (he told the amount will be transfered to my bank account). This seems to be a fradulent call and guys be very aware not to belive such calls.

Hence I request you to please take care of such fradulent calls, so that your company name would not be used for fraud purpose.

Thanks!
Ram

AirtelDish — Fraud Message

I have received the message for free Set Top Box. Can anyone stop this crime. Why the Syber Crime Control team does not stop all this nonsence and crime activity
Boss, Beware!! this call was from Pakistan, 0092 is pakistan's code, never share any personal information with such calls, who lure you with big incentives, lotteries etc.

My dear friend, nothing in this world comes for free, Forget it now. It is o.k. as long as you didn't share any of your addresses, account info etc with these .
Hi Rakesh,
Today I received a call from [protected] saying we care clalin gfrom Airtel and you have won Rs.10 Lakhs. he mentione dhe is callign from Delhi. I told him I don't beleive you as this is a international no. He said please ahve faith in God you seriously have won the prize money.I told him for sure you are a fraud and this kind of things are happend every day with several people. So I donlt trust you. He said please trust me and call my manager Rihan Patel on [protected]. And he will give me details and the money will be in my account by 12 noon. I told him you never found anybody since mornign? And I also told him again this is a pakistan number and not a local number and. He said this is an international no. and it is a computer generated no. which selects the winners. I told him I dont have time for all this so please keep the phone. He said please atleast once call my manager and he will tell you, I hope atleast then you will beleive me. I said ok if I find time, I will call you. And he kept on insistign that I call him, I told him I ma drivign right no and it is gettign late for work. He said please call up within 15 mins. I reached office and googled Rihan Patel's name and I came across this blog. My itnution was right that this was a fraud call.

Strange !!! Even today i got a call from [protected]. I didn't life the call. When I Googled out, found that +92 belongs to Pakistan... for a moment, my mind Q who can call me from Pak. Then I googled the number directly, and got your posting.
WOW!!! This thing has not yet stopped. I also received a call from the[protected] and the person claimed that I have received a Airtel Mobile lottery of Rs.25 Lacs. He gave me another 14 digit number '[protected] and asked me to call this number to claim the lottery amount. I called this number and a person named Vijay Kumar congratulated me for winning the Airtel DISH TV lottery of Rs 25 lacs and asked me to recharge my number and give me bank account number. Since I am using a Post paid number I immediately knew this was a fraud call and have take up the issue with Airtel Customer support [protected]@airtel.in for taking action.

Regards,
Bhaskar
