Airtel — call regarding tower installation

Address: 711316

Today, 26th feb, 2019 around 5pm i have received multiple calls from number: [protected], offering 15 lakhs amount for installation of airtel mobile tower in our property. The person also offered 30k monthly rent as well as a job to take care of the tower with 12k monthly salary.

The offer was really tempting. When i asked for further information and procedure, the person asked me to send multiple documents like, aadhar card, voter card, property paper, pan card via whatsapp. Also the person multiple times asked for if we have insurance of the property. As we do not have any insurance for the property, the person asked me to purchase insurance within next 24 hours, otherwise the offer will be canceled.

When i asked the person if i can prepare the insurance on my own, the person refused and told me it will not be valid. Then i asked the person to send me all the details from their official email address. But the person refused that it can not be done until my profile is created at their end.

I suspected probable phishing call and disconnected.

I would like to report this and want you to take appropriate action.

Thank you.

In Airtel app for 998 recharge it shows as data and SMS renews every 28days but after recharge the SMS says only SMS are renewed. This is misleading and please suggest what I can do to reverse and do another recharge that offers me more data.

Airtel still charging NCF of 94 rupees on my secondary connection which should be waive off as per TRAI so please look into this and take action ASAP.

I don't know why we have to post it and contact airtel many times, every time they told me that they don't have any update yet and we need to wait for same.
