A resident of Thane has reportedly been defrauded of Rs 93.30 lakh by two individuals who lured him into a forex trading scheme, according to authorities on Saturday.
The accused, named Ananya Agarwal and Mukul Agarwal, allegedly manipulated a digital trading app to mislead the victim with fictitious earnings from January to May this year.
The police disclosed that while the app showed inflated earnings of Rs 3 crore, the victim realized the deceit when he couldn't access his initial investment or virtual profits. Legal proceedings are underway, though the accused have yet to be apprehended.
