I was scammed by a person calling from this Number. Person identified himself as Raj Malhotra. Started speaking in Hindi and Punjabi to make himself more convincing. He said he is a authorized Dish Network Service Provider. Asked me to check their website SatelliteSales.com. Promised to save me 50% of my dish network monthly bill. He paid $1356 using a Visa Credit Card on 8/8/2012, which did not belong to me on my Dish account. He was very convincing and said since they do large number of customer setups for Dish Network so they get discounts and coupons from Dish that they can pass onto us since the coupons have no cash value for them. Raj Knew a lot about me as a Dish Customer. I provided him with my dish account number, Dish Receiver number and last four digits of my Social Number. He paid $1356 on my account and then asked me to check online that the bill is paid, which I did and saw the payment was posted via a Visa Credit card.. He also asked me to call Dish Network to confirm the bill is paid. I called dish and spoke with an agent Chris id OTV who confirmed that indeed the bill was paid. After that Raj kept calling me to pay him cash. I told him I would like to pay by credit card for protection against fraud. However, he insisted on cash as then he would loose money. It was a mistake to trust him.He gave me a Wells Fargo Bank Account number ending with 0567, email address dishnetworkofficial@gmail.com and I transferred $600 cash into this account from my account. Raj then said he could also save money on my ATT cell phone and asked for more details. I told him I want to wait as I don't have money now to pay another $600 in cash. After a month on Sept 11, 2012 he called Dish and got a refund since he or his partner in crime disputed the charge with either the Credit Card company or with Dish. Now I am out of $600 and Dish has sent me another bill for $300 since the last bill was paid with fraudulent Visa Credit card . I was scammed so please be careful out there!
