Smart move! Mumbai woman unfolds UPI scam, know what happened next

In a recent incident, a Mumbai woman showcased vigilance and stopped a UPI scam attempt. The scam unfolded when she received a call from an individual claiming to have her father’s permission to transfer Rs 25k of LIC money to her account, since her father was not adept at using digital payment methods.

The caller, who addressed her affectionately as “beta,” seemed to be in a hurry to complete the transaction and requested her Google Pay details under the pretext that her father was not on the platform. As the conversation progressed, the scammer conducted a series of rapid transactions, creating a sense of urgency.

“I got a call from some guy who said he got my number from my dad because my dad said he is not on Gpay and I am (which is true),” she wrote.

However, the woman named Tamanna grew suspicious when she was notified of receiving Rs 50,000 instead of the expected Rs 5,000. The scammer tried to exploit this so-called ‘mistake’ by asking her to return Rs 45,000. Despite the pressure, the woman remained calm and claimed she had only received messages, not money, on Google Pay. She wisely decided to wait for her father’s return before taking any further steps, which led to the scammer eventually giving up and disappearing.
