[Resolved]  Relief India Trust — Suspicious call asking for donation

I received a call from mobile no. [protected] from this organization on 29.10.2014 at 6:40 pm, the caller was addressing herself as volunteer Swati . She told that this is an NGO who needs Rs. 2 lacs for treatment of girl namely Pratigya Kumari. She told that this girl is suffering from cancer and tomorrow chemotherapy is to be done. She asked me to make the donation and also asked my mail address so that details of bank account could be sent. She told me the procedure how to make donation through their website. She even asked the amount of donation I can give. She also asked that I have to fill the form on their website in which I have to give the reference of her name while filling the form. Couldn't understand what is the need of stating reference name when the person calls herself as a "volunteer". Also when I asked from where did she get my number, she said that their organization had organized a blood donation camp where some person gave my number. Found it fishy and when I googled, I found that there are so many complaints against this organization. When I did not made donation, again there was a call next day and asked me to donate. She even asked me to give confirmation message so that she can send me 80G certificate.
