Bhopal man duped in online class scam; loan taken using his OTP and documents
BHOPAL: In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, the popularity of online classes surged. However, cyber fraudsters are now exploiting this trend to carry out scams. In a recent incident, fraudsters duped a parent by posing as representatives of an online learning platform and took out a loan in his name using his documents and OTP. Acting on the complaint, Bhopal Cyber-crime Branch registered a case and started investigations. Police said that the complainant, Kishore Kumar , a resident of the Ratibad area in Bhopal, was contacted about a month ago by individuals claiming to offer online education. During the conversation, they offered an annual package of Rs17,000 for online classes for his child. They requested Rs150 for registration, along with copies of the Aadhaar card, PAN card, and an OTP sent to his mobile. Believing the offer to be genuine, Kishore Kumar submitted all the documents and shared the OTP. He was then asked to pay Rs2,500 as an initial fee. After the payment, the online classes for his child began. Fraud Discovered After a Month: About a month later, Kishore received a call from a private finance company informing him that a loan of Rs17,000 was active in his name, and the first EMI bounced. Shocked, he contacted the online class providers, who told him that they already received the full payment from the finance company and that he should continue paying the instalments. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Redefine Your Future with a Top Online MBA JAIN Online Learn More Undo Until then, Kishore had no knowledge that a loan was taken out in his name.

However, their phones were switched off the following day and have remained unreachable since. Distressed by the incident, Kishore Kumar approached the Cyber-crime Branch and filed a complaint. Based on the complaint, the police registered a case on charges of fraud and initiated an investigation. Police have once again urged citizens to remain cautious while sharing personal documents and OTPs online.
