Swift action by sleuths from the Cyber Economics and Narcotics crime (CEN) police station in Mysuru helped three victims of online cheating get their money back.
The victims had lodged separate complaints with the CEN police station in the city that they had been cheated by fraudsters and their money had been transferred to bank accounts in different parts of the country.
While ₹44,000 had been transferred from the credit card of complainant Rajnikanth from Choranahalli in Mysuru, another complainant, Sohan Jain from J P. Nagar, said he had transferred ₹6,000 to a fraudster, who promised him a job. Another complainant, Mahadevaswamy, a resident of Vijayangar, said the fraudster had cheated him of ₹25,000 online after convincing him to part with the OTP (One Time Password).
