After few days i got a call that i have won in my state and submit few documents along with a payment of rs 26, 000/- which i did. But later i came to knew that they had opened an insurance in hdfc bank without my knowledge. After few days they had stopped attending my calls and was no response. The numbers were Rajeev : [protected] Sumit : +91-[protected] After three years i got a call again saying that my prize is still pending and due to some problem it will be processed now. For which due to income tax problem i gotta pay rs 7000/- then it will be released. The way they spoke it made me believe and i paid, after few days no response and number is switched off. Recently few days back i got a call from Ashish : [protected] He said that we are sorry as few of fraud people are taking their company name and collecting money and all the money will be refunded.
