Text of Complaint by Pallavi:

On 4th Sep 2023, I received an OTP from ICICI Bank to transfer Rs 1 to E Billing Solutions.
On 5th Sep 2023, I received Whatsapp messages from Business account posing to be ICICI Bank. Person sending messages insisted that I install.apk file sent by them to update my Pan card no. Since , I know what .apk files are, I understood at once that it’s a cyber attack on my phone. I did not open .apk file sent by them
