New Delhi. You must have heard and seen many cases of cybercrime. Many of you must have experienced cyber fraud. But apart from all these matters, a female of Bengaluru has become a new type of cybercrime. The 57-year-old female received a fake IVR call from the bank and while following the computerized instrument, Mahila lost Rs 2 lakh. Those who do not know, let them know that IVR call is that, in which no person talks, but a computerized voice comes.

Mahila, who lives in Dattatreyanagar, Hoskerehalli, Bangalore, told the Girinagar police that he received a call from 01412820071 at around 3.55 pm on January 20. He thought that the call was from SBI, because the same was being displayed and he also had an account in the same bank .

How did fraud
Mahila thought that he had a call from his bank and hence he picked up the phone. In IVR call, it was being said in English in computerized voice that 2 lakh rupees are being transferred from your account to another account. If you have done this transaction, press 3; If you are not transacted, then press 1.

Mahila said that I was shocked, because I did not do any such transaction, as was being told in the voice note. Mahila said that I did not press any button. But the voice note was repeatedly reporting it. I was confused and after listening to him several times I pressed 1. Just after this, another voice note came that you should go to your bank and immediately get from the bank manager. After this, the phone was disconnected.

Mahila said – I immediately checked my account. 2 lakh rupees were less. I immediately went to the bank and met the manager. The manager advised me to call the cyber helpline 1930 immediately and register a complaint. The bank manager said that they will take steps to cancel the transaction or write a letter to the department and ask them to seize the money from the account of the Fraud. Sumitra said – I reported the incident to the cyber helpline and after exiting the bank, contacted the Girinagar police and lodged a complaint. The case has been registered under the Information Technology Act and BNS Section 318 (fraud).

Very strange case
The police officer said that during the IVR call, the fraudsters usually set voice messages to identify their target, such as the final four marks of the debit card, bank account number, or birth date, email ID or online banking Data required for. He told that once the victim shares the information, the money is blowed up. Without sharing the identity, it is not possible to fly money by pressing only 3 or 1 or 9 options.

He said that in this case, it seems that the victim is hiding some facts. It may be that he has responded to the voice message and shared some information, for which he needed to withdraw money by reaching his account. If she is not hiding anything, then it is a very new thing for us. There will be a closure only after investigation.
