🚨 HYDERABAD SENIOR DUPED OF ₹26 LAKH IN DIGITAL SCAM
A 68-year-old man from Humayun Nagar was targeted in a shocking cyber fraud where scammers posed as ATS, NIA, and senior police officials. Using fake arrest warrants, WhatsApp video calls, and fear tactics linked to a Pahalgam terror case, the fraudsters forced him to transfer over ₹26 lakh from multiple bank accounts.
🔴 The victim was pressured to shut FDs
🔴 Money was moved to accounts under fake names
🔴 Forged RBI letters were used to mislead him
His family later grew suspicious, leading him to file a complaint with the Cyber Crime Helpline (1930).
