Mumbai – The news of fraud of Rs 20 crore in the name of digital arrest with an elderly person living in South Mumbai is still fresh, while a 69 -year -old person living in Wadala has been stirred up with a similar cyber fraud of Rs 97 lakh with an elderly person living in Wadala.
After the incident, the elderly woman lodged a complaint with the Central Cyber Cell and the police further investigated and arrested the 26 -year -old woman who committed the fraud and is trying to apprehend others.
According to further information received in this regard, the 69 -year -old people live in Wadala and are currently living retired lives.
On January 5, a fraudster named Vijay Sharma allegedly claimed himself as a senior telecom officer of the Delhi headquarters, claiming that bank accounts have been opened in his name using his phone and Aadhaar card and with the help of these accounts, money is done as well as human trafficking. The old man was surprised to hear the officer.
The calling officer intimidated the elderly person saying that he would send them a legal notice and then deposited Rs 97 lakh in unknown accounts through various transactions from the elderly person, giving fear of various reasons and digital arrests. After this, the elderly got suspicious and when he realized that he was being cheated, he lodged a complaint at the Central Cyber Police Station. In this regard, the police have registered a case against unknown fraud and started further investigation by registering a case under various sections.
The cyber police took out the details of the account in which the elderly had deposited the money. Meanwhile, the police came to know about an account in Andheri in which 20 lakh rupees were deposited, which was later taken out. When the police got more information about this account, it was found that the account belongs to a woman living in Lokhandwala area of Andheri. When the police went to the woman’s house and questioned her, she told that the account was being managed by Nakim Madan Lochan (26), who is a woman living in Malad. After further interrogation of Naik, the police came to know that he too had received the amount of fraud and had withdrawn the amount. The police have arrested Lochan and started further investigation to catch others.
