A Bengaluru woman lost Rs 31.83 crore in a six-month-long digital arrest scam. Impersonating CBI officers, fraudsters coerced her into 187 bank transfers under video surveillance. The victim lodged a complaint, seeking a thorough investigation.
The victim reportedly received a call from a scammer posing as a FedEx courier executive. The caller, who had access to the victim's Aadhaar details and phone number, alleged that a parcel containing 2 kg of clothes and 150 strips of LSD had been booked from Mumbai to Singapore in the victim's name.
