Hyderabad techie loses Rs 67 lakh to crypto investment scam
Hyderabad: An IT employee from the city lost Rs 67 lakh to cyber fraudsters who ran a crypto investment scam through a fake website. The 39-year-old IT professional from Langer Houz alleged that he encountered cryptocurrency investment advertisements on Instagram. Upon clicking the link, he was added to Telegram and WhatsApp groups, where administrators advised him to invest in crypto trading through their portal in July 2024. The fraudsters utilised fake dashboards to demonstrate that the victim had made significant profits on his investments. The victim used his savings and obtained loans to transfer over Rs 67 lakh within a year through hundreds of UPI transfers to bank accounts in Karnataka, Jammu & Kashmir, Kerala, Gujarat, and Himachal Pradesh.

But bank accounts to which the amounts were transferred by the fraudsters were all blocked as the amounts were proceeds of the crime,' a cybercrime official said. Immediately after the victim initiated withdrawals, the accused abruptly deleted their social media groups and disabled the weblink in the first week of July. The victim also realised that his bank account, into which money had been credited by the fraudsters, was frozen on instructions from the Bengaluru cybercrime police. 'Not just my bank account, but even those of my wife and brother, to whom I had transferred some money, were also frozen by police, causing EMI defaults and credit-score damage,' the complaint stated. After trying to unsuccessfully re-establish communication with the fraudsters and talking to bank representatives about freezed accounts, the victim approached police on August 5. 'I also request you to unfreeze the three bank accounts,' the victim stated in his complaint on Tuesday. On his complaint, a case was registered under Sections 111(2)(b) (organised crime), 318(4) (cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property), 319(2) (cheating by personation), 336(3) (forgery for purpose of cheating), 338 (forgery of valuable security, will, etc.), and 340(2) (using as genuine a forged document or electronic record) of the BNS and the IT Act.
