Next time taunt them to say
Mera Bharat Mahan

It must be the seema haider's close relative who might be in the police job and accidentally/mistakenly calling/dailing ur number instead of sachin.
Dam, why I don’t get such calls. Would’ve enjoyed.
DM your number I will forward to them😄
international numbers on whatsapp are always scammers.
Where to report these fraudsters?😡
How will you report a Pakistani number
The only option is to be aware and also alert family never to respond any other number
Only Indian number starting with +91 of not then just decline/disconnect the call
Earlier they used to say that they are calling from KBC team as it did not worked well. So now, they changed jobs and now they are in police
Tell them if they need some Help, we can send via AirDrop.
You did the right thing as you already blocked them.
you have block option use that
I blocked one number 2 days back now received call from another number. That is why I asked for help because I thought they can call from another number that may be Indian.
Happened to a neighbour of mine too just last week. A +92 (Pakistani) number WhatsApp called my neighbour pretending to be a police inspector and said that "Do you know where your son is right now?" My neighbour said "He's in college attending a class" to which the imposter said that "He has been arrested with two' of his friends for attempting to r*pe a girl and that he is currently in the police station." My neighbour was too shocked to speak but his younger brother immediately took the phone and inquired "Which police station?" There was a pause at the other end (clearly they didn't expect this question). A little later they said "your local police station" (without mentioning the locality). My neighbour's brother grew suspicious when the imposter at the other end couldn't even name the area police station. So he handed over the phone to my neighbour and asked him to continue talking to the imposter to buy some time. The imposter told my neighbour that they (the police) would consider releasing my neighbour's son in return for some chai paani. Meanwhile my neighbour's brother immediately called his nephew who fortunately was just getting ready to go into the class at college. The son clarified that he was in college just about to attend a lecture. The jig was up. My neighbour's brother snatched the phone from my neighbour and started abusing the imposter. They simply disconnected the call.
These people prey on the shock factor an innocent person receives when they hear that the call is from the police and don't even notice that the number (+92) is not from India.
just ignore these illitrates.
