Karkala, Jun 23: A local resident suffered a significant financial loss due to an online fraud incident reported within the jurisdiction of the city police station.

Ramesh received a WhatsApp message 15 days ago from someone named Diya, purportedly representing the Investors Alliance group, regarding investment opportunities in the stock market.

Trusting the communication, Ramesh transferred Rs 10.87 lac from his account to a State Bank of India (SBI) account belonging to a person identified as Suresh Kumar, claimed to be a member of Investors Alliance. Immediately after the transaction, Ramesh found himself blocked from further contact with the group via WhatsApp.

Authorities from the city police station are currently investigating the incident to gather more information and apprehend those responsible.

Even the most uneducated fool will not fall for this type of trick; looks like these victims have lots of spare money and time to get trapped in such money doubling schemes especially related to the stock market! These diameters know that there is lot of money floating around with areca and pepper prices making life time highs! What with the big publicity the stock market got around election results time that even farmers from rural areas, gudda angadi shop owners, auto drivers have started investing in the mandi!! Please note that this is a very personal opinion; kindly don't believe in somebody's personal opinion!

These online fraudsters are increasingly targeting mangaloreans after the elections. I think they have done a survey to see which constituency has maximum andhbhakths, to easily fool them

Sir; how do you think it's a fraud scheme; would anybody in his proper senses transfer so much money through digital technology to an unknown entity in the virtual world for whatever heavenly promises they are making 🤔??

People who think about making more money quickly often fall victim to such investments. And those who are highly educated become targets of fraud more easily
