"cybercrime-2"

The cybercrime police helped two victims, one a senior citizen aged 76 years and the other was a 28 year-old woman.

The man had applied for a personal loan and had eventually received a call on WhatsApp from unknown person who claimed to be an executive of ‘Reliance Capital’. The caller then collected details of Aadhaar, PAN card and bank statement.

The arrested are Rahul Dangi and Rahul Bhoi, both residents of Rajasthan.

So far, financial amount of more than Rs 3,431 crore has been saved in more than 9.94 lakh complaints, informs Bandi Sanjay

Driven by a personal grudge over some issue with the victim, the suspect went on to circulate victim’s morphed images through the fake Instagram account.

To mark the occasion, an impressive passing out parade was held at the Academy, which was attended by senior police officers including Telangana State Director General of Police (DGP), Dr Jitender, who was the Chief Guest for the event, along with families of the constables.

A Hyderabad woman, working at a private company, transferred Rs. 1.70 lakh after receiving WhatsApp messages from her superior’s number, believing them to be genuine, said cybercrime officials.

MLC Tatha Madhusudhan said that it was undemocratic that Telangana activist Dileep, who came to the cybercrime police station for questioning as per the orders of the court, was illegally arrested by the police.

The arrested person was identified as Sadakat Khan (37) from Sultanpur in UP. He was arrested on November 2 at Indira Gandhi International Airport in Delhi while returning from Maldives, where he was taking shelter.

According to the Hyderabad Cybercrime police, the victim, aged around 55 years, was charged of involvement in money laundering and threatened of arrest by the fraudsters.

The suspects were identified as Naresh Shinde and Saurangh Shinde, both from Aurangabad in Maharashtra.

Under the Hyderabad Police Commissionerate limits, the cybercrimes incidence has increased by 24 per cent this year. Revealing this, the City Police Commissioner, CV Anand on Wednesday was candid in remarking that cyber-security was no longer just a policing duty.

A 52-year-old victim fell victim to fraudsters posing as stock brokers from the firm 'Lazardoovip.Top,' who lured him into online trading with promises of significant profits. He ended up transferring Rs. 1.22 crore to various bank accounts, only to later realize he had been conned.

On being interrogated, the couple confessed to committing the offence by creating fake profiles of girls on a website, Telugumatrimony.com, to make fast money

The fraudster called the person over WhatsApp video call and informed that a bank account was opened on his name and it was used for money laundering purpose.

The victim went to the bank, broke fixed deposits, mutual funds as well as savings and deposited the amount in the given account number through RTGS

"There is no system like digital arrest in the law, this is just fraud, deceit, lie, a gang of criminals and those who are doing this are enemies of the society," the PM cautioned

Putting the victim under fear that her mobile number was being misused by cyber fraudsters and thus she was also booked for a money laundering and would be arrested for the same, they made her transfer the money into their bank accounts.

According to the cybercrime police, the victim was lured by a WhatsApp message by the scammers who claimed to be executives of a company which specialized in enhancing the click-through rates of Instagram videos.

Hyderabad Police Commissioner CV Anand appreciated the efforts and proactive response of the bank officials and cybercrime staff in preventing the fraud and saving the victims and felicitated them.
