The complainant further said that a woman claiming to be from Mumbai customs department called her to tell that there was a gift parcel, which will be released after she deposits Rs 42,500, as custom duty. She said that after the amount was transferred, she got another call from the same lady demanding another Rs 1.8 lakh after which she got suspicious and lodged a complaint with the police.
