[Resolved] Homeshop18 — fraud call from homeshop18 regarding winning of tata safari

rkbtd

from Gagret, Himachal Pradesh

Address:

Bilaspur, Himachal Pradesh, 174001

Today morning at around 9.30 am i also received a call from a person pretending to be from homeshop18 and told me that i have won a tata safari against the order placed by mw online of rs. 889/-. The person told me whether i want the tata safari or cash which will be 12 lacs approx. But i asked him to call me latter as i was driving, till then i traced the numbers from which i got calls the numbers were [protected] and [protected] both the numbers were registered in bihar, patna. I also called the complaint cell/ legal cell of the home shop18 and asked them to take action against those who are leaking the sensitive information of homeshop18 as the caller new my order no. And other personal details also. When this was told to the legal cell executive of the company he said that they will take action against the fraud but i fail to understand how will they trace them.
So friends be aware of these kind of calls and don't share any sensitive information like bank a/c no., debit/credit card no. Etc. With them.

HomeShop18 Customer Care's response Dear Sir,

We regret the inconvenience caused to you.

We would like to assure you that Homeshop18 does not share any personal or account related information identifying a customer, with any person/s or agencies.

Homeshop18 never asks customers to deposit money into any personal or individual account and if TDS has to be paid it only needs to be paid into Company’s official account through DD or Cheque in favour of "TV18 Home Shopping Network Ltd.”.If you continue to receive fraud emails and letters or calls, you may lodge an FIR either with the Police or Cyber cell.

Thanks & Regards,
HomeShop18
