Daijiworld Media Network – Byndoor (JD)

Byndoor, Jun 3: In a distressing incident, a man from Uppunda fell victim to a job fraud, losing lacs of rupees on May 27.

Pradeep, the victim, encountered an Instagram advertisement for a part-time job around noon, claiming to be a certified partner of Amazon and Flipkart. The fraudster, identified as Ashwathama, contacted Pradeep via WhatsApp, inquiring about his qualifications. Subsequently, Ashwathama sent a link and instructed Pradeep to recharge Rs 200 through PhonePe, promising a return of Rs 480.

Trusting the fraudster, Pradeep continued to send money as directed, hoping for substantial returns. Starting with Rs 200, he transferred increasingly large sums to various accounts provided by the scammer. By the evening of May 28, Pradeep had transferred a total of Rs 3,91,580.

Upon checking his bank account, Pradeep realized that no money had been credited back and that he had been deceived. He promptly filed a complaint at the Byndoor police station, alleging that Ashwathama had manipulated him into transferring the money.

The police are investigating the case to apprehend the accused and recover the lost funds.
