Airtel — Missed call from Pakistan saying Airtel Representative

Hi,

I got missed call from [protected]. When I called back to same number. The person on other side told that he is speaking from airtel and I have won lottery of Rs.80,000. He asked me that I'll get sum from Punjab National Bank. He asked me to note lottery number. I asked him to call me instead. He said that I had called him and asked to note down number. I again asked him to call him as I don't have enough balance. Then I could not talk to him. May be this would be due to the network problem I'm facing from airtel from a long time or person other side disconnected.

So please take note of such calls and do proper inquiry for the same.

Also, Please try to resolve issue of network which I'm facing from a long time and for which I've already registered complaint many times.

Faithfully,
Jitendra Goswami

Hi,

I also got a similar call from number [protected] saying that i have won 20 lakhs rupees from airtel. He told me match a given number with the serial number of the sim card and if thats true then i will win the lottery. I knew this was something fake and dangerous so i hung the call.

I would request the Police and Govt officials to take care of these calls and track them down.

I live in Pune and got a missed call from[protected]. I failed to notice that this is a ISD number and called back. I was informed that I have been awarded a lottery worth Rs 25 lakhs and I should call[protected] and talk to Mr Akash Verma. The person talked in a manner that clearly did not belong to a professional operator. Therefore I called Idea helpline who informed me that they have no such scheme in operation. Moreover, they told me that this was a ISD number and told me that I should not call. I am planning to launch a police complaint.

Dear All,

I got 2 missed call from number [protected] on 07th march 2011 .when i dialled the number he told me that that i won a lottery of 10 lacs.

The airtel company should take some actions. Why our identification is being disclosed? Do any one knows, what may be their intention or what they can do with this?

I too received a miss call from [protected] yesterday. When called back on same number today afternoon..He introduced himself to me as Ravi. He said he is calling from Vodafone office, Bandra and told me that i have won cash prize of Rs. 25 lakh and asked me not to tell it to anyone... He later on gave me a number [protected] and asked me to speak to Vijay supervisor in Bomaby office... but i knew that 92 is not India's country code..
When i googled i got to know that i m not the only one... there are too many more who have got the calls in past..
What is this exactly happening?? Can anyone help me? Shall i get a complaint lodged in police station..
I got a missed call from [protected]( The smart *ss called for a micro second, the phone was in my hand). Just to conform where this ISD code is from, I checked on the internet and reached this forum. Thanks everyone! I wont call this number now.
I too got the call from the number [protected] at 6 am and 7am today, since I was sleeping I checked it later and little but didn't call, to my surprise I got the call again and they said "Namaskar - (A hindi welcome greeting and not a pakistani one) Main Airtel se bol raha hoon aur aap khushnaseeb hai ke aapko 25 lakh ki lottery lagi hai, aapko 25 lakh chahiye ke nahi chahiye (they know the obvious answer is always positive, who doesn't need money), when I knew it was a gimmick and a trap I scolded the person for making such calls and the person on the other end suddenly started abusing me the worst abuses to my surprise, and now when I look here I think it is not only me but many... .whom do we complaint? and who will take action for such calls .
I am just worried if innocent people fall in the trap and lose their money, also our details, numbers are misused by people. where is the TRAI and the other goverment who can regulate on this serious issue of harassment .
I too got the same missed call on my mother's airtel no. from no.[protected] on April 7, she then call on that no. from her tatadocomo's no.(as she doesnot have balance in Airtel No.).The person on other side has told that she has won 25 lakhs lottery under Airtel scheme and plz call from Airtel No.
When i called From Airtel NO. he has given me theno.[protected] of Mr.Vijay (name as told by them).
then when i called on that no. he again told me same thing about lottery and told me to switch off my mobile for next 4 hrs, But while talking to him i noticed that He is using URDU words this has triggered my mind after disconnecting call i called on customer care of both Airtel and TataDocomo.
I hav not given him any info.
I am really afraid tell me what to do???
Plz suggest me something .
the latest number- [protected]...got a call at 9:40 pm (13/04/11), introduced himself as ravi shankar from the mumbai office told me i'd won 25 lakhs in a lottery, on being asked wether there was any info about such a thing online, he denied straight off saying i'm some head manger of airtel and that i should trust him and call [protected] and ask for vijay sharma in the Bangalore branch.
I asked him why the number began with a "00" since its domestic, he says it's an online number!! (wherever that is) ...BEWARE people

AirTel — Calls from Pakistan

Have come across instances where we get calls from unknown numbers from Pakistan. These calls are highly undesirable, people pick contact nos from various sources and call up. I myself have received such calls 2-3 times.

They may have some bad intentions behind this and they definitely have, else why would they call up a number they don't know.

Provider says that they can't do anything about this, but we want action to be taken. After all we can't trust pakistan.
