Will update the details,
Money has been recovered within 3 hr into fraud

 

[RAMESH BABU N]

Details like where, which branch, which type of account, mode of operation, type of DC/CC, what parameters set for it's operation, domestic or international, OTP disabled by choice....... And, the customer's profile.

Its a bit scary that only picking up the call leads to account being debited. Was it an internation or domestic number? Any specific prefix we should lookout for?

But how they bypass OTP for a such big amount of transaction?

Is it a/c transfer or pos transaction ?

Woww..... It's great that the amount was recovered back.. I remember a similar incident that happened with my colleague where he received a call from unknown number and within 10 seconds of picking up the call, he received 3 debit sms from the bank. No OTP, email or anything but 3.2L was wiped.
The most surprising fact was that he would never give his number linked to bank accounts to anyone, not even his family members. He had immediately complained but AFAIK, he didn't get the amount back🙄

Tell her not to pick unknown numbers until money is transferred or maybe make a fd and break it when you wanna transfer the money.

How can someone lose money by just picking up a call? Maybe installed some software earlier which gave remote access to phone
