[Gadha S]

Dear all,

    Forwarding a mail received for your information and to be alert.







     " I received a call from someone claiming that he was from my mobile
service provider and he asked me to shutdown my phone for 2 hours for 3G
update to take place. As I was rushing for a meeting,
I did not question, but just shut down my cell phone. After 45 minutes I
felt very suspicious since the caller did not even introduce his name. I
quickly turned on my cell phone and saw several missed
calls from my family members and the others were from the number that had
called me earlier I called my parents and I was shocked that they sounded
very worried asking me whether I am safe. My parents told me that they had
received a call from someone claiming that they had me with them and asking
for money to let me free. The call was so real and my parents even heard
'my voice' crying out loud asking for help. My father was at the bank
waiting for next call to proceed for money transfer. I told my parents that
I am safe and asked them to lodge a police report. Right after that I
received another call from the guy asking me to shutdown my cell phone for
another 1 hour which I refused to do and hung up. They kept calling my cell
phone until the battery had run down. I myself lodged a police report and I
was informed by the officer that there were many such scams reported. MOST
of the cases reported that the victim had already transferred the money!
And it is impossible to get back the money. Be careful as this kind of scam
might happen to any of us!!!

Those guys are so professional and very convincing during calls. If you are
asked to shut down your cell phone for updates by the service provider, ASK
AROUND!

Your family or friends might receive the same call. Be Safe and Stay Alert!
Please pass around to your family and friends !!!
