[Resolved]  Misrepresented As Videocon — Fraudulent Activity

Address:Kamrup, Assam

I received a sms from TM-D2H that my mobile no. has been selected in lucky draw and I have won a Videocon DTH. I was told to regiester my address and mobile no. at www.d2hvideocon.com to get the gift. After registering I again received a sms to log in the site for getting the gift. There they have told me to deposit Customer Service Tax of Rs.440 in the account of Mr.Swapan Chowdhury Aur Account Number [protected] of State Bank of India, whom they have introduced as D2H VIDEOCON Senior Executive From Kolkata. I am sure this person is a fraud and is trying to make money by misusing the name of Videocon. Following is the copy of the instruction in the website:

Same thing happend with me, yesterday was last date for me to deposit Rs. 440/- but I have not deposit this now to-day they send me one message again "kisi karan agar aap apna consumer service tax nahi jama kar paya hai tho firse aap online banking se jama kar sakte hai. Please login www.d2hvideocon.com/payment.
I agree with all of you. The disheartening fact is that although this fact is reported to the company concerned ie., the original videocon d2h service, nothing is been done from their end concrete enough to book these culprits. They should have already alerted through all mobile service providers and giving public advertisement stating the facts straight so that these fraudsters do not dupe other people. The most dangerous thing is that the site : www.d2hvideocon.com/payment is using the name of "VERISIGN" and "PAYSEAL" to lure prospective customers to give their credit card/internet banking details. Does it take too much time to nab these culprits, or it matters nothing becoz people at large are getting duped. God save these country.

Same here i got the message on 2nd June. It was very clear this was a fraud the moment it asked for the deposit amount. I called up the d2h videocon toll free number and the person said they are aware of this and apologized for the inconvienince which was nice on their part ...however, the irony is, this is still continuing. I see the earliest complaint was in April and now it is June and its still happening. Wonder, why nobody is taking any action !! At the least d2h videocon should be doing something, since this is using their brand name and an 'almost give away' webpage. Very concerning !!! but such is the world we live in :( sigh !! . Hope someone takes action ASAP !!!
