3.7 lakh for a couple using Bescom Bill. Fraud!

Online fraudsters, claiming to be from Bescom, cheated a city restaurant owner and his wife of Rs.3.7 lakh.

Blaise D'Souza and his wife Diana D'Souza were duped. Dear customers, your electricity connection will be disconnected at 9.30 tonight due to non-renewal of the previous month's bill,' the fraudster sent a message on February 28 saying that the Bescom bill payment has not been updated.

At this time, Diana received a call from a person who introduced himself as Sharma, claiming to be a BESCOM officer and asking for a number. In this case, the correct RR number and bank details of the bill have been given.

Fraudsters have withdrawn money from a joint account in Yes Bank. Diana D'Souza, Blaise D'Souza's wife said that they also tried to hack Axis Bank account and failed.

Blaise tried to hack his Axis Bank account and withdrew Rs.111. Later they tried to draw Rs 20,000 and Rs 40,000. Diana went to the Cybercrie station and complained about this.
