Police said, Reddy came into contact with some cyber fraudsters through social media and started arranging bank accounts for them.
“Fraudster paid a commission of 30% on each transaction to him,” said TSCSB officials.
The TSCSB teams early this month arrested Shindhe Pranay, Vanikar Naveen and Arugula Laxman who are associates of Kesava Reddy and had lured people living in villages in Bhainsa to open bank accounts.
