Superintendent of Police Kantilal Patil said the arrested men, Kadavala Bhavesh Sida Bhai, Rathod Rahul Haja and Sahu Pradeep, all hail from Ahmedabad. They were caught by a special team formed after G Kiran of Kagaznagar lodged a complaint stating that Rs 7 lakh had been fraudulently withdrawn from his bank account.
During interrogation, the trio confessed to committing the offence to make quick money. They admitted to luring gullible people by promising huge returns if they deposited funds in specific accounts. They also said they approached victims under the pretext of hiring them to rate products and opened a bank account to carry out the fraud.
