Hyderabad: A youngster escaped with two puppies worth Rs 25,000 after hoodwinking a couple running a pet shop under the Chilkalguda police station limits here on Sunday.
The couple approached the Chilkalguda police and lodged a complaint alleging they were duped by a youngster who bought two puppies and in the guise of making an e-wallet payment, cheated them.
The couple, identified as Naveen and Keerthi, who run a pet shop in Namalgundu area, was approached by a youngster on Saturday asking for puppies. He bought two puppies for Rs 25,000.
“At the time of payment, he told them he would pay Keerthi via e-wallet. He also showed a message that the transaction was completed. He left the spot immediately.
