i. Lottery fraud<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h4>

Modus Operandi<\/h4>

  • Fraudsters send emails or make phone calls that a customer has won a huge lottery. However, in order to receive the money, the fraudsters ask the customers to confirm their identity by entering their bank account \/ credit card details on a website from which data is captured by the fraudsters. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/li>

  • Fraudsters also ask the customers to pay taxes\/ forex charges \/ upfront or pay the shipping charges, processing \/ handling fee, etc., to receive the lottery \/ product. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/li>

  • Fraudsters in some cases, may also pose as a representative of RBI or a foreign bank \/ company \/ international financial institution and ask the customer to transfer a relatively small amount in order to receive a larger amount in foreign currency from that institution. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>
