Another nexus on the rise? Cyber criminals use Pulwama terror attack plot to dupe Hyderabad techie of Rs 2 lakh
Pulwama terror attack to extort money from a Hyderabad-based IT professional.
The victim, a 29-year-old woman residing in Gachibowli, was recently swindled of Rs 2 lakh after fraudsters threatened her with a seven-year jail sentence and a fine of Rs 20 lakh, claiming that her accounts were linked to the perpetrators of the deadly attack that claimed the lives of 44 CRPF personnel.
According to the Cyberabad police, the victim first received a call from an unknown number claiming that a parcel addressed to her had been returned to a FedEx office in Mumbai due to its suspected illegal nature.
The caller further alleged that her Aadhaar and phone number had been used to send the parcel from Mumbai to Singapore.
When the victim denied any connection to Mumbai, the caller directed her to a supposed 'Mumbai crime branch', where she was asked to provide her Aadhaar details.
