However, the complainant realised that ₹90,000 had been debited from her husband’s account as well. After a while, he disconnected the call saying that the money would be credited in a while. He once again instructed that the phone screen should not be off and asked the woman to check if any money had been credited to her account. The accused also sought details of her husband’s debit card. The teacher then shared her husband’s bank account details, and was asked to download ICICI Bank’s netbanking application and another app called Any Desk. The money couldn’t be returned to her account, the accused claimed. The woman called back on the accused’s number, complaining about the money being fraudulently transferred out, to which he said he would send the money back if she could share a different account’s details. Later, the teacher saw various OTPs and transaction messages on her phone and realised that the accused had made five transactions worth ₹1.45 lakh from her account. The caller, however, said that this would mean the process would remain incomplete, and asked her to stay online and make sure that her phone screen does not go blank.Īs per the complaint, after 10 minutes on the call, the caller said the process was over and disconnected.
She was then asked to make a transaction of ₹1, at which she tried to disconnect the call.
