According to the police sources, the woman, a Malad resident, received a call on October 3 from an unknown number.
The caller pretended to be a bank official to be from the bank and asked for her bank details. However, as she had woken up from her sleep, she could not remember the details.

She immediately rushed to Malad Police Station to report the incident. Based on her complaint, the police have registered a case and are investigating the matter.
