|November 11, 2024
A few days ago, Prime Minister Narendra Modi alerted the nation's citizens about digital arrest scams. However, Biswajit Nayak, a resident of Ananda Pally in the Raniganj Police Station area of West Burdwan district, has fallen victim to a cybercrime, losing Rs. 9 lakhs.
-
Biswajit Nayak has filed a complaint with the National Portal and a separate written complaint with the Cyber Crime Police Station of the Asansol Durgapur Police Commissionerate (ADPC) on 4 November.
In his complaint, Mr Nayak alleged that he received calls from unknown numbers, with the callers claiming to be police officers who had implicated him in a bank fraud case.
Overwhelmed by the accusation, he was then transferred to an alleged national cybercrime cell, where he was threatened with arrest.
