Archana Puran Singh, known for her iconic laughter on The Great Indian Kapil Show, recently shared a shocking experience from her family vacation in Dubai.

However, things went terribly wrong after they discovered they had been duped by an online ticketing scam.

Archana Puran Singh Shares Painful Experience Of Online Ticketing Scam

In her latest vlog, Archana opened up about how her family fell prey to the scam. The actress explained that they booked three slots for the skydiving experience through an online platform. But upon reaching the venue, the staff informed them that there was no booking under their name.

Archana recalled the moment and said, “We had booked three slots in iFly Dubai, but the staff here are telling us that we have not done the booking. We have been scammed because the website from which we made the payment does not belong to them. We've been cheated in Dubai.”

She further added that the tickets were expensive and expressed her shock over the incident. “I never expected this to happen in Dubai, where rules are so strict and people fear to engage in such fraudulent activities.”

Archana’s son Aaryamann revealed more details about the fake website. He said that while booking, the site initially displayed a four-minute ride but changed to two minutes when redirected to another page, which seemed suspicious. Unfortunately, they proceeded with the payment. Later, when they checked, the fraudulent website had completely vanished.

Parmeet Sethi was visibly upset about the ordeal. He said in the vlog, “I am shocked. So much money has been spent. I have paid in cash again. What if it turns out that this is also a scam?”

Archana shared that the experience ruined their plans but hoped others would learn from their mistake. The vlog, which features candid reactions from the family, is now live on her YouTube channel.
