Attending phone calls has become trend and common in current period because without phone calls there is no life of everyone and the reason is someone has been called to talk with relatives, friends and so on. But today I will talk about that experience when the phone call was picked by me. But that was unknown. Actually last week I was reading a newspaper while travelling in bus. I think on that day was Saturday. Suddenly my phone rang. I picked the call. I checked it was unknown number. Firstly I cut it because I don’t give attention to them but we get rang and I packed. I picked the speaker told me that she is from Airtel company and she wants to tell me some special offers on my number. She said to me that within 100 rupees I can recharge my phone for 35 days plus 5GB data. Moreover she told me that within 250 rupees my number can recharge for 120 days also 1GB data per day. I listened to her very carefully. I thought that it is very beneficial call as well as money saving. I told her ok how I can take benefit of this offer. She told me that madam please give your bank account number with IFC code and 3 DZOTP ULRC please share with us. Then your offer will start. I told her now cut your phone if you call me again then direct I will send your number to the police station. She cut the call when I called her again. Number was switched off. When night comes to the question of what I felt about it to be honest I have nothing bad to say about it because I saved to myself from fraud calls. So that was the time when I answered a phone call from someone.

Attending phone calls has become a trend and common in the current period because without phone calls, there is no life for everyone. The reason is that someone has been called to talk with relatives, friends, and so on. But today, I will talk about that experience when I picked up a phone call from an unknown number. Actually, last week, I was reading a newspaper while traveling on a bus. I think that day was Saturday. Suddenly, my phone rang. I picked up the call and checked that it was an unknown number. Initially, I cut it because I don't pay attention to them, but it rang again, and I answered. The speaker told me that she was from Airtel and wanted to tell me about some special offers for my number. She said that for 100 rupees, I could recharge my phone for 35 days plus 5GB of data. Moreover, she told me that for 250 rupees, my number could be recharged for 120 days with 1GB of data per day. I listened to her very carefully. I thought that it was a very beneficial call as well as money-saving. I asked her how I could take advantage of this offer. She told me, "Madam, please give your bank account number with the IFSC code and 3-digit OTP, and please share it with us. Then your offer will start." I told her to cut the call, and if she called me again, I would report her number to the police station. She ended the call, and when I tried to call her back, the number was switched off. When night came, regarding what I felt about it, to be honest, I have nothing bad to say because I saved myself from fraud calls. So that was the time when I answered a phone call from someone.
