Full transcript
Good morning, thank you for coming in today. Can you tell me exactly when you received this call about winning the lottery?
ਸਤ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਅਕਾਲ ਜੀ। ਮੈਨੂੰ ਕੱਲ੍ਹ ਦੁਪਹਿਰ ਨੂੰ ਇੱਕ ਫੋਨ ਆਇਆ ਸੀ, ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਕਿਹਾ ਕਿ ਮੈਂ ਵੱਡੀ ਲਾਟਰੀ ਜਿੱਤੀ ਹੈ।
How much money did they ask you to pay, and exactly how did you send that payment to them?
ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ 800 ਡਾਲਰ ਮੰਗੇ, ਤੇ ਮੈਂ ਕੱਲ੍ਹ ਸ਼ਾਮ ਨੂੰ ਗਿਫਟ ਕਾਰਡ ਖਰੀਦ ਕੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਕੋਡ ਫੋਨ ਤੇ ਦੱਸ ਦਿੱਤੇ।
Did you give those gift card codes to anyone else besides this caller, and have you contacted the retailer who sold them yet?
ਨਹੀਂ ਜੀ, ਸਿਰਫ਼ ਇੱਕ ਵਾਰ ਦਿੱਤੇ ਸਨ, ਅਤੇ ਮੈਂ ਹਾਲੇ ਤੱਕ ਦੁਕਾਨ ਵਾਲਿਆਂ ਨਾਲ ਗੱਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਕੀਤੀ।
Please contact the supermarket's customer service today, as soon as possible — if the codes haven't been redeemed yet, they may still be able to block them for you.
ਜੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਹੀ ਕੋਡ ਵਰਤ ਲਏ ਹੋਣ, ਤਾਂ ਕੀ ਮੇਰੇ ਪੈਸੇ ਵਾਪਸ ਮਿਲਣ ਦਾ ਕੋਈ ਮੌਕਾ ਹੈ ਜੀ?
I'll lodge a report with Scamwatch today on your behalf, but I must be honest with you — once gift card codes are redeemed, recovery is rarely possible.
ਠੀਕ ਹੈ ਜੀ। ਜੇ ਇਹ ਲੋਕ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਦੁਬਾਰਾ ਫੋਨ ਕਰਨ ਤਾਂ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਕੀ ਕਰਨਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ?
Please do not answer their calls again, block the number immediately, and never share gift card codes or any personal details with anyone claiming you've won a prize.
ਧੰਨਵਾਦ ਜੀ, ਮੈਂ ਹੁਣੇ ਨੰਬਰ ਬਲਾਕ ਕਰ ਦਿੰਦੀ ਹਾਂ ਅਤੇ ਅੱਗੇ ਤੋਂ ਬਹੁਤ ਧਿਆਨ ਰੱਖਾਂਗੀ।
