Mobile number of this new fraud is: +91 9874941221

> Name: Shaksham (as he claims)

He contacted me on Whatsapp and collected my ICICI bank details. After 20 minutes, he sent me a screenshot of payment Rs.164000/-, which is transferred to my bank account.  Everything was perfect with the screenshot also. Within seconds I got an sms from icici bank saying my account is credited 164000 INR.

Immediately copied his wallet address as I promised him instant transaction, and proceeded with bitcoin payment. Suddenly.

I took a pause.

How can he send IMPS payment from ICICI to ICICI? Because in the sms IMPS reference number was clearly mentioned. Take a look at the pic below.

I logged into my netbanking account. Buh! Nothing was there.

The sms was sent from some other website. Lucky I am. Would have lost 0.84 btc, in a matter of seconds.

Lesson: Always login to your netbanking account for confirming a payment receipt. Never trust the sms you receive. Beware of these frauds guys. Safe trading.
