In a significant breakthrough, the Delhi Police have dismantled a cyber fraud syndicate linked to international operatives, arresting three individuals, including a bank employee.
The operation was set in motion following a complaint about a fraudulent Rs 10,000 transfer from a resident's account in Bareilly. Investigations pointed towards a suspicious account at a Mayur Vihar bank, connected to multiple complaints.
Further investigations revealed that a bank employee facilitated the opening of accounts for these illegal activities. With the use of technology including APK-based tools, the syndicate accessed bank accounts remotely, diverting funds swiftly. The investigation continues to uncover other potential members involved in this global fraud network.
