💨 Abstract

A 68-year-old woman in Mumbai was defrauded of Rs 1.25 crore by cybercriminals posing as RBI and police officials. They coerced her into believing she was involved in a financial fraud and needed to deposit money to avoid arrest. The victim realized she was scammed after reading about digital arrests in the newspaper and reported the matter to the police, who are investigating.
