Actor and television personality Archana Puran Singh recently disclosed that she and her family were victims of an online scam during a vacation in Dubai, resulting in the loss of thousands of rupees. She shared the incident in a vlog posted to her official YouTube channel.

While vacationing with her husband, actor-director Parmeet Sethi, and their sons Aaryamann and Ayushmaan, the family booked tickets for iFly Dubai, a popular indoor skydiving attraction. However, upon arriving at the venue, they were told by staff that no such booking existed under their names.

“We had booked three slots at iFly Dubai, but the woman at the counter said there's no record. We’ve been scammed — the site we used to make the payment wasn’t theirs. And the tickets weren’t cheap either,” said Archana in the vlog, visibly surprised. “I never imagined something like this could happen in Dubai, where rules are so strict. I really didn’t expect it.”

Parmeet Sethi echoed the shock, adding, “Thousands of rupees are gone.” He later paid in cash for new tickets so the family could still enjoy the experience. “What if this turns out to be another scam?” he joked.

Aaryamann Sethi recalled noticing something unusual while booking. “I chose a four-minute package, but the site suddenly changed it to two. I thought it was just a technical issue.” He also mentioned that the website was no longer accessible.

Ayushmaan added that the fake site had advertised a “Ramadan discount,” even though the holy month had already passed — a detail that seemed suspicious in hindsight.

In summary, Archana Puran Singh shared that her family fell victim to a fraudulent website while trying to book an indoor skydiving session in Dubai, leading to the loss of a substantial sum of money. While the actor did not disclose the exact amount lost, she called the incident both unexpected and disappointing.
