Today I got a call from someone claiming he is from Noise ([protected]). He told me there was a promo offer, where if I purchased items for INR 4999, I would get 40% cashback. In addition to that, I could choose an additional gift from the following products:
Dell Inspiron
Sony Bravia TV
Apple iPhone
Voltas AC
LG double door fridge
They claimed that offer is from Noise sales and promotion team and that I need to pay the amount of products (4999) not from the app(as it would be like any normal purchase and not the offer) but from Bank transfer.
After payment they said sales promotion person will call me and confirm dipatch and then you can search the order ID on noise application as well.
The dispatch guy called from ([protected]) and said that there is some GST issue that government is not approving using their GSTIN as the invoice for laptop that I chose was in my name(they sent me the invoice for laptop on which Noise GSTIN was there. I checked it later on govt portal).So he insisted me to pay 9000 and said I'll get reimbursed immediately. I refused by saying I don't have that kind of money and asked them to pay n charge me on delivery of products. He said he will have a word with his senior and get back. Since then all the number that I mentioned are switched off.
The same scam was done in name of nykka which I found out on Google.
My concern is without any support from Noise or data leaked by them how did those people know about my order history my address and all other personal details because that is one of the major reason I thought it was authentic. Was this information helpful? |
