Honest 836 Report post Posted May 27, 2008 11 Mobile Phone Agents Arrested in UP Eleven agents of different mobile companies were arrested in Lucknow for not keeping records about their customers' identification proof while issuing SIM cards, the police said Tuesday. Lucknow Senior Superintendent of Police Akhil Kumar told reporters, "The main objective of the drive is to sensitise the telecom agents and the people about the norms required for mobile connections." The 11 people were arrested from Gudamba Chowk, Bazar Khala, Ahiyana, Alambagh, Banthara, Sarojininagar and Cantonment areas of the city, the police said. After terror threats were issued through mobile phones, the state government directed the police to launch an extensive drive to ensure that norms are followed for purchasing mobiles and providing connection, said a police officer Tuesday. Earlier, the Lucknow police had received SMS threats through mobiles to blow up the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited's office in Lucknow. After investigations, the police declared the SMS as a fake.

raccoon 53 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 Rubbish... nonsense... its all a farce! What does it take to get a connection?! Anyone who has access to a copy of any of your documents like licence, Election Card, PAN card, etc, etc, can get a connection in your name and use it. Besides youc an always forge things. Do they really think people who are ready to die will be deterred by such things??? Its only millions of us non-terrorist citizens that get harassed by these measures...

amtrag 20 Report post Posted May 29, 2008 Right raccoon. Do they think that terrorists will change their profession because of this and stop indulging in anti-social activities? There are a thousand ways to get a fake ID and its only the innocent customers who suffer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manishag 17 Report post Posted May 30, 2008 dude this modi family is itself fraud. HOTSPOT is activating the fraud connection just to show the nos. but atleast they activate it when they gave it to customers. but the go mobile and the PhirBol keeps the pre activated sim cards for all brands weather you want reliance or any other GSM. just go to the outlet and take the pre activated sim cards. though there director were warned by the operators no to follow the wrong practice but who cares as long as you are getting the good margins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manishag 17 Report post Posted May 31, 2008 i know dude. this practice is common because many distributros provide 99 CAF which they have to sale it wth in 30 days from date of entry as 99. so they sale lots of connection with fake ids. for small dealres this practice is common but what about these retails chains like HotSpot Phirbol and GoMobile. only chains from modis follow these practice.
