The victim Vipin Yadav runs a fertilizer and animal fodder shop in Nandganj market. He told that one day a call came on his phone, in which the caller described himself as his brother -in -law. His voice was exactly like his brother -in -law. The caller said that he needs money to treat his friend, but his account could not get transactions.
He said that he is sending 45 thousand rupees to Vipin’s account, which will have to be transferred to a QR code. After this, a screenshot of 45 thousand rupees was also sent on WhatsApp. But when no message came from the bank, Vipin thought that the network may have a problem. Then he sent four thousand rupees from the phone on that QR code. Then the message came that there are only five thousand rupees left in his account.
Before he could understand anything, the thugs hacked his mobile and took out the remaining four thousand rupees. When Vipin again called that number, the phone was switch off. As soon as he realized the fraud, he immediately approached the Cybercrime Helpline 1930 and went to the bank the next day and gave complete information about the incident.
