Am I speaking with Mr. Abhiraj Shrivastava?<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Yes<br \/>\nJeet: I am Jeet from IRDAI. You have a life insurance policy from XYZ insurance company. Am I right?<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Yes<br \/>\nJeet: Sir, I called you to inform you that your survival benefit is due. You can avail your survival benefit.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Ok. What do I need to do?<br \/>\nJeet: Sir, you don\u2019t need to worry. I will ask someone from XYZ insurance company to contact you. He will help you to get the benefits.<\/p>\n<p>(Later Rakesh from XYZ company calls Abhiraj)<\/p>\n<p>Rakesh: Good evening sir. I am Rakesh from XYZ insurance company. You must have received a call from IRDAI.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Yes.<br \/>\nRakesh: Then, have you purchased a new endowment policy from us?<br \/>\nAbhiraj: A new endowment policy? No, I have not purchased any new policy.<br \/>\nRakesh: Sir to receive the survival benefit, you need to buy a new endowment policy. The money from survival benefit will be credited to the new policy.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: But, why?<br \/>\nRakesh: Sir, to receive the amount, it is mandatory to invest in a new endowment policy. It is our company\u2019s policy. You need to understand that.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: But, I don\u2019t want to buy another one.<br \/>\nRakesh: Sir, then you won\u2019t be able to get the benefit.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: How can this be possible? I want to talk to your senior.<br \/>\nRakesh: Ok sir. Hold on. I will inform Mr. Raghu, my senior.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Ok.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(After 5 minutes)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Raghu: Hello, I am Raghu, Jeet\u2019s senior. How may I help you?<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Raghu ji, your employee informed me that my survival benefit is due.<br \/>\nRaghu: Yes sir. Your survival benefit is due and to receive the amount, you have to buy a new policy.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: But I don\u2019t want to buy a new one. There must be an option.<br \/>\nRaghu: No sir. You can only receive the benefit after you buy a new policy. And I believe that it would be a win-win situation for you. You will get the survival benefit from the existing policy and after buying a new policy, you and your family will be financially secured again.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: But\u2026I have to pay premium for the new policy too\u2026huh!&#8230;what will be the premium and sum assured of the new policy?<br \/>\nRaghu: Sir you will get an endowment policy. The sum assured will be Rs. 20 lakh and you need to pay a yearly premium of Rs. 1 lakh for 10 years. On maturity, you will also receive a bonus.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Ok. I will buy the insurance policy. But when will I receive the survival benefit of the existing policy?<br \/>\nRaghu: Sir, after purchasing the new policy, you will receive it in a month. Sir, should I send you the link to make payments for the new policy?<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Right now? I mean, this fast?<br \/>\nRaghu: Sir, you only have 48 hours to avail the survival benefit.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: 48 hours? Then quickly send me the link.<br \/>\nRaghu: Sir, I have shared the link to make the payment for the policy.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Wait a minute.\u2026 I have paid the amount.<br \/>\nRaghu: An OTP has been sent to your mobile number that will confirm your purchase. Sir, it would be great if you could share the OTP too. I\u2019ll hold the call.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: The OTP is ****<br \/>\nRaghu: Thank you, sir. One more thing, you will receive a verification call from the company, just agree to whatever they say or else it will take time to release the survival benefit.<br \/>\nAbhiraj: Ok.<\/p>\n<p>(For a month, Raghu and Rakesh contacted him regularly. However, after a month, Mr.Shrivastava did not receive the survival benefit. He contacted both Raghu and Rakesh but they tried to make excuses and then avoided his calls.)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.insurancesamadhan.com\/register?utm_source=organic&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=blog_post&amp;utm_term=blog_term\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.insurancesamadhan.com\/assets\/img\/contact.png\" alt=\"Insurance Samadhan\" width=\"500\" height=\"70\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_were_Raghu_and_Jeet_avoiding_his_calls\"><\/span>Why were Raghu and Jeet avoiding his calls?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Raghu and Rakesh are not the insurance company\u2019s officials. They were just impersonating them. Jeet (a fake IRDAI official) informed him that his survival benefit is due and Rakesh informed him that to avail the benefit, he needs to buy a new insurance policy. Abhiraj wanted to cross-check the offer. Therefore, to avoid suspicion, Rakesh introduced Raghu (his alliance) as his senior. Raghu made Abhiraj believe that the information given by Jeet and Rakesh was true. He convinced him to accept the false promise and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insurancesamadhan.com\/blog\/steps-to-deal-with-insurance-mis-selling\/\">mis-sold an insurance policy<\/a>. Also, Raghu informed him about the verification call from the insurance company and instructed him to agree to everything they would say.<\/p>\n<p>Both Raghu and Rakesh contacted him so as to gain the trust of Abhiraj. They tried to pass the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insurancesamadhan.com\/blog\/how-to-cancel-your-insurance-period-during-free-look-period\/\">free-look period<\/a> so that policyholders do not apply for policy cancellation.<\/p>\n<p>After the end of the free-look period, they both started to make excuses and later avoided his calls.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here, Abhiraj became the victim of an insurance scam. He did not receive any survival benefit. Instead, an insurance policy was mis-sold to him which he never desired.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you receive such a call, immediately lodge a complaint with the police and give all the details like details of the caller and the contact number by which he approached you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have become prey to an insurance scam and an insurance policy is mis-sold to you, then immediately contact your insurance company.
