Important Information:
My NRE A/C No. XXXXXXXX GhatKoper Branch India which was debited fraudulently.
MR. SHAKEEL AHMED A/C NO. 002601536284 : Which was credited.(FRAUD)
On 6/21/08. some one hacked their website (or ICICI bank has glitch in their program) and debited my account: XXXXXXXX for 196000/-.
On 6/23/08 I received a mail from Mr. Umang Shah asking me or my relative in India to contact him regarding Internet Fund Transfer.
On 6/24/08 As I was not sure if the mail was genuine and from ICICI bank, I replied to his email “What Fund Transfer are you talking about.? ” Please contact me at USA no.
On 6/28/08 as I did not hear from him I had some doubts about the mail. So I tried to log on to my account through Internet but I could not log on as it was stating that my UserID is disabled. So I contact customer service at 18664242448. Just to assure I asked the balance and was shocked to hear the balance. Then I contacted the Mr. Umang Shah - Investigating officer of ICICI bank, Rupa Chanda - Assistant Manager -they confirmed that my account as well as several others accounts were debited fraudulently.
I tried to talk to the Branch manager but she was not willing to talk to me.
Same night Rupa Chanda called me to assure that it was a fraud and my money will be returned.
From customer servise also they assured the same that I will get my money back.
Now they do not want to take any responsibility and do not even want to talk to me because they know its ICICI bank fault. Either ICICI bank has glitch in their Internet Banking or their internal IT employees are involved.
Since then I have been trying to get in touch with a responsible authority of ICICI bank as these customer care banking officers and the Branch Officer do not want to talk to us and disconnect my phone.
I want to lodge a complain against ICICI bank – Ghatkoper Branch as NO ONE CAN HACK A SECURED WEB SITE OF A BANK LIKE ICICI WITHOUT THE HELP OF ICICI BANK INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT.
Also please note that they came to know about the fraud on 6/23/08 and did not even bother to call me and confirm if I did that transaction. On 6/28/08 Mr. Umang Shah told me that when Mr. Shakeel Amed’s account 222601536284 was credited with lots of money from my account and several other account holder they were alert and kept a watch on his account.
I want to point out ICICI bank irresponsibility (On purpose as employees are involved in this) here is :-
1. Why they waited and did not freeze his account or questioned him immediately.
2. Why they waited till MR. Shakeel Ahmed took out all the money from his account.
3. In banking system whenever there are suspicious transaction like this an Alert Flag is raised and respective Team is informed about this so that they can keep a watch on it.
4. ICICI does not allow to withdraw more than 25000/ per day from ATM. In banking system there is a limit restriction to transfer money via Internet Banking. How cum my account was debited for 196000/.
5. Here again when his account was credited with tons of money why the team did not contact us immediately.
How cum these hackers do not hack our national banks. If these are hacker then they will hack any web site even the national banks.
Now ICICI bank does not want to take any responsibility. It seems there are lots of complain against ICICI bank with cyber police of Bombay. I spoke to the Inspector of Cyber Police and they confirmed that they get lots of complain about ICICI bank.
Working as a systems analyst in IT of Bank of America we know that this kind of hacking is not possible without the help of ICICI bank employees.
These private banks like ICICI hire morally cheap employees who do this kind of hacking with partnership of outsider and get away clean.
I am also contacting the Finance Ministry and all possible authorities
