💨 Abstract

Cybercriminals in Indore deceived 45 Avantika Gas customers, defrauding them of INR 26 lakh. The scam involved threatening to disconnect their gas connections due to unpaid bills, followed by a request to download a suspicious APK file containing a screen-sharing app. Once downloaded, the cybercriminals took control of the victims' phones and stole their bank, credit card, and debit card details.
