This incident took place when I was traveling by train from Hari to Delhi to meet my relatives after finishing my 12th standard exams. Normally, I don't answer calls from strangers, and I really dislike spam calls. Unfortunately, the mobile network coverage was poor, so I couldn't access the internet on my phone, and I was getting quite bored. Suddenly, I received a call from an unknown number, which I initially ignored, but the person called again, and I decided to pick it up. I thought answering the call would be a good way to pass the time by talking to someone. The caller started by saying that he needed just two minutes of my time and promised something exciting by the end of the call. He asked for some personal details and offered me a work-from-home job as a data interpreter, claiming I could earn 20,000 per month. I immediately asked if it was a scam, but the caller denied it and tried to convince me otherwise. I was using my headphones during the call to avoid disturbing the people sitting near me. At first, I was tempted to share my details and give the job a try, as it sounded like a good opportunity. However, when the person mentioned that I had to pay an enrollment fee of 12,000 to secure the job, I realized it was a scam. I quickly ended the call and felt relieved. I shared the incident with my fellow travelers, and they agreed that I did the right thing by not trusting the caller.
