Please take necessary advise from concerned Financial Adviser.
Please give me Rank 5 if you feel my answer helped you.
In case it is genuine transfer then do not try to circumvent the RBI as you both will be in big trouble. And if it is a a fake one then just ignore and move on. Lot of cyber frauds like this are happening.
