The caller further asked Amit to open five new policies of ICICI to nominate himself in diamond category and further said it will give him impressive returns of Rs 47 lakh. The caller started daily calling to Amit from the call center and convinced him to purchase new policies.
Amit transferred Rs 24 lakh in various banks accounts which were given by the prank caller. The caller also sent email of confirmation of received amount on Amit's email id. Amit was relaxed about the bonus of Rs 47 lakh. However his dream was shattered when the caller made demands for additional money. Now Amit got suspicious and inquiries revealed he has been duped and approached Umred police station. The police had registered the case under sections 420, 467, 468, 471 and 34 of Indian Penal Code read with sub-section 66 (d) of Information Technology Act 2000.
