[Resolved] Airtel — Fake calls regarding winning lottery | |||
I got a call on 10.5.2010 in my mobile at 10.29 (missed call) and again at 01.16 IST from [protected] from one Raj Verma, Supervisor and he informed that I won a lottery for Rs. 10 lakhs. He further told to get Airtel coupouns worth Rs.15,000/- and call him after that. Prior to this I received another call from[protected], who also informed I have won Rs. 10 lakhs as prize in Airtel contest in collaboration with Shah rukh Khan. I earnestly request to all AIRTEL mobile customers not to fall prey to the whims of these fake callers, who needs to be hanged. My contact number is [protected]. I urge AIRTEL authorities to take serious action against these anti social elements, who are trying to tarnish the name and fame of AIRTEL. Urgent action is solicited against the offenders. Was this information helpful? | |||

I have got a call from a person. He asked me whether I have a dealer sim, then he said I have selected in a draw and I have won talktime worth Rs. 2500. Then he asked me how much amount I have in my dealer sim card(which is used to recharge the customer's mobile) I said Rs.1000. Then he said you have to follow a procedure to get that amount.
He then asked me to go to the airtel recharge from the menu. Then asked me to enter his mobile number and then he asked me to enter the number in place amount(0998 as I had Rs.1000) saying that this is my Id. Then he said enter the password. You will get a message. At that moment I realised(before entering the password that I am doing actually recharging his account). I scolded him like anything and then he disconnects the phone.
