It was like another
monotonous day till I woke up from my siesta at 6:45 PM. With partial opened
eyes, I extended my arm to reach to my mobile (kept on the right side) and saw a
miscall and two whatsapp messages from my ex-colleague but existing friend
Ankit.
“Yaar phone toh utha liya
karo” (Buddy accept the call atleast)
It was definitely not my
email address, thus in next 15mins I dragged myself out from bed, washed my
face, prepared green tea for self and sat back to give a call back to my now entrepreneur
friend Ankit.
“Hi…Ankit! Kaise ho?” (Hi
Ankit! How are you?)
“Ankit?”
“Ankit?”
“Ankit?”
There was pin drop silence
on the other end. Considering it a network problem
I disconnected the call but Vodafone didn’t forget to charge me for a blank
call.
Called him again in next second
and this time I could hear a voice from the other end of the phone.
After leg pulling from both
sides of the call, Ankit asked me the same question, is aribasaeed91@gmail.com my email account? I simply refused and told him, of
all email ids I use this has never been one.
Ankit- Yaar mujhe issey
messages aa rahe the (Buddy I was receiving messages from this)
I– Kaise messages? (What
type of messages?)
Ankit- Yaar it has some of
your information, toh meine soocha bata doon. (Buddy it has some of your
information, so I thought of letting you know)
I got chocked by the words
of Ankit. Who could create an account on my name and send my info to people I
know?
My heart rate amplified,
brain started running in every wrong direction.
Is it an ex?
A psycho lover?
Someone I rejected
recently?
My immediate question to
Ankit was ‘What kind of information?’. He couldn’t answer that, which panicked
me more.
What made him not answer
that? Is there something he shouldn’t have read or seen?
I tried to answer that
myself with a calming tone, “Is it some kind of spam?”
He told me that he has
hacked the account and I should check it by myself. He provided me the login
details and as I entered in the gmail account I promptly clicked on the sent
folder to check what information of mine is being distributed.
There were no sent mails.
(May be the person has deleted it to dispose every evidence if caught?)
Ankit -“ Dekha mail?” (Did
you see the mail?)
I– Kaunsa mail? (Which
mail) There is one from you which says Happy Diwali Ariba
Ankit- Yeah! Open that.
The mail read:
“Hello Ariba,
Thanks for opening this
mail.
Please visit
http://aribasaeed.com”
I right away clicked on the
link, although the picture was clear to me seeing aribasaeed.com. But all the
guessing failed and I busted into a giant laughter.
“Ankit beta (child) this is
not even working. It’s saying the server not found”
Then, with a dumbfound
giggle Ankit directed me to type www. instead of http:// and bull’s-eye! It
worked.
It was my blog with my
domain with a perfect theme to suit my personality. I mockingly said to ankit,
“Iski kya zarurat thi?” (What was its need?). And he replied “Diwali gift to
banta hai”.
Happy Diwali Ankit!
