A man who was trying to cancel his food order on a toll free number was duped of Rs 4 lakh in Virat Khand area of Gomtinagar on Wednesday. However, it was later revealed that the toll-free number was fake.
According to a report in The Times of India, the victim said that he had ordered food through a food delivery app but, the food was not up to the mark. He looked for the customer care number on the internet and said his call was received by a man who introduced himself as the company's representative and asked him to install an app and log in to his savings bank account.
