[Resolved]  Airtel — call with isd code +92

I entirely agree with the complaint. I too received today a call from a number [protected]. I did realize that the call was ISD (from Pakistan) only after I saw the billing charged according to ISD.

I am unable to understand a motive behind this call and how did the caller get my number in first place?

There are three serious issues with this type of calls. First, we do not know what the caller from Pakistan is engaged into. I am concerned, sch callers may have fraudulent sim cards, being used in different crimes. Our phone may be traced if anything wrong happens and we will be in unnecessary trouble. Second, it is a breach of privacy and trust by Airtel that it has leaked our number to any agency in Pakistan. Why at all should they do it?? If they have not, why should they be careless in not protecting data with utmost security?
Thirdly, the billing part. It seems each small pulse costs around Rs 10.

Airtel needs to explain these issues on immediate basis. This is something serious!!

Received a call from Pakistan [protected]. I don't know how come my number is shared. Kindly look the matter ASAP.

AirTel — Miss Call from ISD no. starting with +92

Hi,

From last several day i am receiving some miss call from ISD no. which is [protected]. Today i have called back to this no, and come to know they are saying i have won some 25lk Rs. They saying that they are talking on behalf of Airtel.

As i am know that this is scam, so i just hangup the phone.
But the worse part is, to know more about this issue, and to inform i called up Airtel Customer care. After trying 30mins i reach to a guy at 9:57PM, named Mr. Harish(as he say). When i stated him my problem, he told me that he cant do anything becoz his system is down and told me he can do nothing. And he dont have any idea on this issue. I ask him to connect with TL, but he refuse to do so. Even he dont told me his TL name. I request him several time to connect me with his TL. But he straightly says, he cant do that.

This is our country's one of the leading Mobile service provider response on cyber crime. I wonder if this prank is related with any terrorist activity, then is Airtel will take any responsibility on this matter. I am looking forward for explanation of Airtel.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

This is one more similar incident. On 4th May 2011 around 10pm and early morning of 5th MAY 2011 i have missed call from no. [protected]. On searching the country code information i got to know this is orginated from Pakistan. To my best of knoledge i dont have any body who is stationed in Pakistan. I also seen several complaints on similar back ground. When called to AirTel customer care they asked me to ignore the call or i can register a complaint in Local Police Station.

Best Regards,

Hi all,

I also have received a miss call from number [protected] at 4:44 pm on 12th May, 2011. I was not sure and what was it and called the number. it was to my surprise the person Arjun Singh (he told) who picked my call and told that i won Airtel lottery for Rs. 25, 00, 000 and he asked me my Account number, my name and Fathers name to transfer the Won amount.
I furter enquired where can i get this all details of the amount i won, then he said this would be announced on GEO Channel, i was surprised to listen the Channel name because this channel is not available in India. I replied him saying that i will call you later.
Please check what kind of calls are these and how they received our numbers.

Thanks,

I got a call today from [protected]. When I searched code on the internet, I came to know that the country code is for Pakistan. The caller just gives missed call.

Amazed to see how the caller form Pakistan got hold of my number.

Please look into the matter.

Dear Concerned,

I got a missed call from +92 series a few days ago, on calling back (as i did not verify the missed call). My balance was drastically reduced by Rs. 150/- for a call of approx 35 secs. The person online was talking about some gift. A few days later i again got such missed call. Even today ie. 21/05/2011. I have received a missed call from No. [protected].

In the interest of national security. Kindly guide as to how to deal with them.

Thank you.

Regards,

Ashutosh.
