I am 17 years old male teen. I am going to share you my experience, how someone frauded me online. It was the day which I can't forget throughout my life.

That was day of Wednesday, as per regular routine I was attending my online classes. Approximately at 12:15 PM , I got a call from a person who was pretending to be a staff of Amazon.in.co Company. I don't how he got to know about my last delivered package.  They told me that,  sir, we are on behalf of Amazon officials have declared a prize for you, which consists of  *IPhone 11* and they told me about more three products. Actually They gave me Choices among those products. And I selected Iphone 11. Then they told me a code which I have to search on amazon application search engine. And that made me trust on them. Then they told me that sir you have to shop on amazon for Rs. 5000 or more. They said that, Select your items and we will call you back within a hour. I said OK!!

After 45 to 50 mins they again called me, before they called me I connected to Amazon officials customer care and they told me that sir If there would be any contest or prizes like this we would have contacted to you through notifications. Amazon does not calls personal for any vouchers or prizes.

And after that fake Amazon callers called as I told before. They called after 45 mins.  I asked them if they are fraud or not. Very amazingly they managed me to trust them again by saying, sir this is secret giveaway prizes about which only a single team knows. And they said that,  sir we are not asking about your bank details or any other personal informations. And this made me to trust on them. And they told me to tell Them about those products which I have selected. They said that they will order those products from their only and will send IPhone 11 with those products only. They told me to pay Rs. 5000 to them through Amazon Pay or Paytm, And I paid.

Then they said that we will verify about the transaction and will register your prize on your name.

 

But they didn't called for 2-3 hrs. And whenever I called them they told me that sir it will take few more minutes. And exactly after 3 hrs, They called me and said sorry sir we are unable to process your prize due to company issue. We will refund your amount. And that was the twist. They told me something to do and told me to type an OTP : 20108  at the place of amount. And you will get your refund. And before this they asked me 3-4 times If I am using it for First time or used Paytm earlier. So that they can fool me and take Rs. 20,108 as I told you all, that they managed me to type an OTP at place of amount and click on pay.

 

I deny and told them that I am not going pay anything more. And that was the incident which I can't forget.

Guy's be safe from these frauds read it carefully and suggest some more safety tips to me and everyone and you also be alert of these frauds.

 

I had already filled a complaint in cyber police so that they could be caught. So that next time those frauds could not take money from anyone else.

Be alert guys.

Stay safe

Stay home

Stay healthy!! ✌
