Two conned of ₹2.83 lakh in cyber fraud cases

Two individuals from Hyderabad fell victim to cyber fraud and lost a total of ₹2.83 lakh in two separate cases. In one instance, a 53-year-old woman was tricked by fraudsters posing as officials from Mumbai’s cybercrime unit, who claimed she was involved in illegal activities and demanded money to cancel a fake arrest warrant. In another case, a 51-year-old private employee was convinced to share his credit card details by a scammer who then stole ₹1.13 lakh from his account. Both victims reported the incidents to the police, leading to investigations into the cybercrimes.
