    i gave DOB.& find fishy with in seconds & gave incorrect PAN no & told policy no i dont know

  • Some idiots claimng to be calling from LIC Head Office Delhi make calls to innocent people and try to loot them stating false promises of arranging bonus payment of some lakh rupees. Such people need to be tracked down and sent to lifetime imprisonment as these people don't have guts to lead life on their won with honesty and integrity. One such guy holds the following number: 9555480340

    However hard they tried i never gave into their BS stories.

    • Thanks for sharing, this would help fellow readers.

      You might want to complaint police for further action.

  • I too got a call today from- 1143519100 and started asking to claim my bonus which will go to Agent's account. Then I asked him to tell my policy number for which I have got bonus and he says he cannot disclose it and this is a verification call. So I asked him how is he going to verify when I have 4-5 policies with me. Then he asked me premium amount for all those policies, I gave him random figures of 5,10,15. Then he said its for the 15 one. Then I told him, I dont have my policy number now, will check online and he can call in some time.
    Then I checked the LIC website for any bonuses and how it can be claimed, then fell upon this page. Good I did not proceed on that call.

  • I got call from this +91 11 143 11440 number also .He has my all policy details and asking about bonus.

    first i confirm the details i wonder he has my policy details like DOB, policy number,amount, etc.

    When i refused then he told me you are finished. told me that (MAI TO BARWAD KAR DUNGA, ROAD PE LA DUNGA.)

    I am very scared please told me what they can do with that details.

    • If you believe him just contact your local LIC office and report this call. I am just amused the way these calls have become from cheating to threatening!

  • Fraud Call posing as LIC office - 011 66252300
    Hi ,

    Got a call from Delhi 011 66252300 (28-May-2016@10.34am) that from the company i got a dividend . When asled about the tracking numer for the dividend file, they said they cannot disclouse.
    He asked me about whether is agent is relative or outside person.
    Once the dividend is cancelled, 40% of the amount goes to the aganet and 60% of the amount will go back to the company.

    I told him that i was in contact with my agent and will get the details from him.

    So, be alert. Do not provide any information of pan,aadhar card number,house address or mobile details.They will generate a duplicate of these things and can be misused for ex: by taking credit cards, loans etc

    If you need any information regarding your policy , get in touch with LIC department directly.
