TL;DR: A scammer approached me at Mumbai Airport T2 Arrival asking for ₹2,000, claiming his UPI wasn't working. I later discovered he had been running the same scam for years at multiple airports. I tracked him down through his relatives, got my money back, and have now escalated the matter to the airport authorities. Even though my money was returned, this scam needs to be stopped.

P.S. I used AI to help reframe and organize this story for better readability.

-----------------------------

A few days ago, while exiting Mumbai Airport Terminal 2 Arrival, a man (around 26 years old) approached me asking for help. He claimed he had an exam the next day, had just arrived from Delhi, and needed ₹2,000 to pay his hotel. He said his UPI had hit the daily transaction limit and showed an error on his phone. He was carrying two Samsung phones, looked genuine, and since this happened inside the airport premises, I believed him.

He asked me to scan a QR code. The payment name showed "GOLDEN RESIDENCY IND." When I questioned why it wasn't in his name, he said it was the hotel's QR code because his own UPI wasn't working. He even demonstrated the error on his phone. In a hurry, I transferred the money.

Before leaving, I asked him to send me a WhatsApp message. He first messaged me from a secondary phone under a different name. When I questioned him, he showed me his PAN card with the name Prateek Bhatia and then sent another WhatsApp message from his primary phone, which matched the PAN card. It looked convincing, so I left.

A few minutes later, while walking towards the rickshaw stand, I searched the first number on Truecaller. It was tagged as "Airport Scammer."

I immediately called him back and asked him to return to the spot where he had approached me. He kept delaying, saying his cab had arrived, and eventually disappeared. That's when I knew I had been scammed.

Fortunately, I had his photo, PAN card details, and phone numbers. Once I reached home, I searched online and discovered videos and posts from people describing the same person running the same scam at Delhi Airport and other locations. I contacted one of the people who had posted about him and received more information.

The interesting part? He kept answering my calls.

I somehow managed to contact one of his relatives and informed them that he was scamming people outside Mumbai Airport. I made it clear that if the money wasn't returned, I would file an FIR and provide all the evidence I had.

Within an hour, he started calling me repeatedly. After ignoring several calls, I finally answered and asked him to return the money. He transferred the full amount but then started yelling and abusing me for contacting his relatives. I stayed calm, confirmed I had received the money, and disconnected the call.

Yes, I got my ₹2,000 back.

I've already reported the incident to the airport authorities. They are reviewing the CCTV footage and have assured me they'll get back to me. I also plan to lodge an FIR because people like this shouldn't be able to operate freely outside airports for years, targeting unsuspecting travelers every day.

I'm also making this post so that it gets indexed by search engines. If anyone searches for this person's name or comes across this scam after becoming a victim, I hope this post helps them find the information they need.

If you've been scammed by the same person, please DM me. I can share the details I have, including information that helped me recover my money, which may assist you in your case.
