Phone Numbers +923...

[Madhur Kotharay]

Hi everyone,

Just an update on a new (?) scam in India that we need to be careful of. Apparently, it is not a new scam but the scamsters are going for it with a renewed vigour, since the "YOU HAVE WON GAZILLION POUNDS PRIZE" SMSes are blocked by the Indian govt.

The scamsters have started calling from +92.. numbers. Typically, these are +923... numbers. 92 is Pakistan code. Apparently, the mobile numbers start from 3 in Pakistan.

These people ask for your details such as credit card number, account number, date of birth as a part of some banking inquiry. Be careful. They are doing identity theft. So don't answer anything from such funny numbers.

I got a missed call from this number just now.

You can check more details on internet if you wish. Type, "Country code 923" in Google Search. And some people think these calls are from Tajikistan. But No, Tajik country code is +992.

Please forward and warn your near and dear ones.
