I submit that I received a telephonic call from mobile [protected] at 4.36 pm on 20.05.2014. The caller identified himself as one Mr. Rohan kapoor, Senior Manager at Verification Deptt. of IRDA Head office, Hyderabad. He told me that:
IRDA has allotted me Rs.2.85 lacs. as refund on account of excess commission charged by Insurance Companies on my insurance policies in 2011-12. He explained in detail that large number of policy holders had lodged various complaints with IRDA in the past alleging that huge commission is charged from policy holders and only a very little amount goes to cover the risk. IRDA examined the issue and decided the same in favour of policyholders. Consequently IRDA recovered the excess charged from Insurance companies and allotted the same to such policy holders. As a result of the same I am allotted Rs 2.85 lacs as mentioned above. This amount was due to be paid to me. This call was last verification call from IRDA. Already three verification calls in this regard were already made.
I replied that nobody ever made any call to me earlier in this regards and I am being made aware of this issue for the very first time.
He further stated that one Mr. Neeraj Sharma has lodged an authority on my behalf with IRDA to receive the said amount. When I told him that I do not know any Neeraj Sharma and I never gave any authority to anybody, he told me that it appears that his department officials (i.e.IRDA Officials) in connivance with some fraudsters are playing this game. He also said that the immediate task is to stop the flow of the money to said Neeraj Sharma. He told that he will immediately move in this regard in his department for action to stop the fraud. He further suggested that I should immediately lodge a complaint in this regard with Mr.Rakesh Bajaj, Joint Director IRDA, Hyderabad through his PA Mrs.Manju Arora on her phone [protected] mentioning my registration No: IR[protected]which he told me). He also said that he would like to verify if he is talking to the right person. Then he started mentioning my detailed particulars i.e. my name, address, city pincode, contact mobile number, father’s name, my date of birth. He said he needs my PAN Number also, which I gave him. He again advised me to contact Mrs. Manju Arora urgently. I called Mrs. Manju Arora on her contact [protected], she replied “ Yes IRDA”. I disconnected the call.
After the call I was a bit confused and I talked to my son who suggested me to call IRDA Hyderabad office. I immediately called IRDA contact No:[protected] (as available at their website) who replied that IRDA never makes such calls and these are all fake and fraudulent calls.
I could understand that someone was trying to defraud me. Since my personal details including my PAN number are with such people, I am afraid that they may be misusing them.
