Dear Sir/Madam,
I have received an message from IM-SHPCJS to my mobile number stating that I have become a winner in shopclues lucky draw through Tata Motors.The message was "Dear customer (congratulation you have winner 1st prize (Maruti Alto Car) (Shopclues for details contact no 08969457901- 9199054058). I have won the 1st prize which is an Tata Alto car. I was given an option either to get the car or will get Rs. 4.50 lakhs in cash/direct NEFT. I had then told I would opt for direct NEFT. A lady named Alka Sharma told me to pay Rs. 6600/- as registration charges. I was told in case if I am not okay they shall refund the registration charges. They gave me their bank details as Mr. Amit Raj , account no. Once this was done I immediately have received an call asking to pay around Rs. 19000/ as charges towards income tax payment. I was told that there is a person named Mr. Amit Raj who is the MD of this company. However from his tone he seemed to be an Bihari with not proper English.
I am now confused was there any lucky draw from this company. I have been receiving calls from certain mobile numbers 9113409281 and 8969457901 and have now asked them to process a refund for the registration charges back to my bank account. They are now behind me telling all papers are processed and make the payment towards income tax. I am feeling this is a fraud. I have been getting calls from mobile no. 7070762334. Was there any lucky draw from Shopclues.com. I have also written to shopclues helpdesk about this. I have now seen many people complaining about receiving such types of calls. I am sure they are using different mobile numbers.
