Consumer Complaint Online
With little awareness on privacy in India, it is a gold mine for scammers looking for actionable personal information.
With spammers and scammers becoming smarter, the customer or victim database is categorised to call the easiest of the lot, mostly the elderly.
Hence, we list down five of the most common types of scam calls made in India for your awareness.
1) Your Credit/ Debit Card or account will soon expire: A call from an unknown landline number, claiming it to be the bank manager or bank customer relation officer, will almost threaten you to share your card details or account details. The caller will give reasons like new bank order or the credit/debit card will soon expire or you have not maintained the minimum account balance, etc.
2) I am Calling From Artel/ Vodfone The caller, claiming to be from Artel or Vodfone, greets you by your name and then asks whether your number is prepaid or postpaid. After verifying your details like address, DOB, etc, the caller will try to help you get a better mobile plan or some offer and ultimately, asking for bank details.
3) Missed Calls From Unknown Number: Never call back after noticing a missed call from an unknown number. Also, avoid calling back international numbers (any number that doesn’t start with +91).
4) BIM/ Pytm upgrade Soon after the demonetisation drive took place, the likes of Pytm and the launch of BIM gave another opportunity for scammers to encash on. These calls could to be made to the elderly to “assist” them on getting the so-called BIM account. There could be calls claiming to be from Paytm or other mobile wallet executives to assist in mobile banking and wallets as well. Ultimately, the aim is to gather confidential banking information.
5) Call from the Income Tax department: The Income Tax Department calling a person who doesn’t belong to a tax bracket or an elderly citizen in India is almost next to impossible. While the call may be entertaining if you are aware that it’s probably a scam call, simple do not reveal any details to the so-called officer.
