Airtel users need to exercise caution while answering calls from random numbers!

Recently, there have been a spate of calls received on Airtel phones from numbers with +92 area code. The callers claim to be from Airtel Dubai or Calcutta and say that you have won an obnoxious amount of money through some lottery. TO avail the cash prize, they ask you to purchase some Dish TV coupons and ask for personal details including bank account numbers etc so that they can transfer you the money. Let me tell you, it’s all a fraud. There is no Airtel office in Dubai. Airtel is not running any such lottery scheme at the moment… and the Dish TV coupons are apparently useless. In fact, the +92 area code is for Pakistan! After attacks like 26/11, we would be stupid to overlook such events. This could very well be an elaborate terror plot where your phone number or bank account could be used for committing horrible crimes. If you’re an Airtel user, you must try avoid taking these calls in the first place. In case you do, be sure to avoid giving out any personal details. Please also lodge a complaint with Airtel and intimate the police. A letter in writing from both sources might help you clear you if your name is wrongly utilized ever.
