The respondent claimed that he is calling from etisalat and she has won a DH 2Lac in a lucky draw held during Quran competition of 4 countries and there team will visit the winners house in the morning at 10a.m and handover the cheque. She was told that her call is being recorded and hence not to waste time and not to drop the call until she go and purchase the Dh1000 Etisalat Wassel recharge cards of Dh 100 denomination. She was thrilled and excited about the price money she heard about , went and purchased the cards hoping that she has truly won and will be getting the Dh 2Lac along with the Dh 1000/=. Fortunately I was present by her side when she was talking to him and the cheater was asking the numbers on the card to be told to him so that his team can verify the numbers next day morning and hand over the gift cheque. She was about to reveal the numbers but I interrupted her and took over the phone call. I looked at the number it is from Pakistan, I told him that you are calling from Pakistan and telling that you are from etisalat and what is the authenticity? He claimed that he has company in dubai, when asked for the dubai contact number, he gave the Pakistan number again saying me that it is Internet number. Then I understood that he is trying to fool the victim by taking and utilizing the Wassel recharge card numbers. It is also clear that there some people here in dubai who are linked with this Pakistani caller who is utilizing these Wassel recharge card numbers. I shouted at him and disconnected. After a while I called him again from my Cell and warned him that I have reported to police, then he started using all possible bad words to me, I disconnected the call. Some of my friends also have received missed calls from Pakistan and they did not call back. I strongly believe there is big racket behind this and a group of people involved in this scam. Hence please spread this information as many people as possible to help innocent people falling in the trap specially house wives. For your information, we can easily identify that no internet number will display the country code and no one can dial back to internet number, the cheaters just fooling the innocents. The number from which she received call is 00923236844199 and the number my friend received missed call from is 00923437472925, Please note they might be using different numbers each time. Spread this message all across to your known contacts......
