Credit card scam

I received a phone call on09.08.2010 around 11 AM on my BSNL land line number (040-27055707) from one Mr. Aditya of India Today Book club office. He informed me that I was selected for a prize of jewllery worth Rs.50, 000 and I had to pay Rs.598 for processing it through my credit card. He asked for Credit card details including the 3-digit code number on the reverse. Though not interested, I was made to give my ICICI card number (4477460700362207) which he fed to the answering machine of the bank. It announced the amount Rs. 598 was charged to my card.

This was followed by a series of calls from some girls speaking in Hindi and claiming to be from India Today who started annnouncing a few more gifts like camp cords, dimond jellery worth Rs.120000, mobiles etc etc some of whch were charged to my credit card using the card number. I came to know an amount of Rs.58, 800.20 was charged by this fraud company of your esteemed Group. They siad that the gifts will be delivered in a week. Finally one person, Anupam, who said that he was also from India Today, Delhi offered a Holiday package which I refused to accept. Then he said that I would forego all the other gifts if I did not accept the Holiday offer. I said I was ready to forego.

I suspected some fraud in this and immedaitely sent an e-mail to Customer care Dept. of ICICI Bank.

There was call again today and on insisting the girl on line gave the phone num ber of bagittoday. I contatcted bagittoday but they are not cooperative - they want me to furnish billing details which I do not know.

I found from website that I am not the only victim and thre are many more cheated by this company.

I am 63 years old person who had undergone angioplasty recently and recovering from heart related problems. I request you to please save me from becoming a prey to this credit card fraud of your group company..

I am also approaching Cyber Crime Police and also consumer forum based on the evidence I have about the involvement of your Group company.
