Bengaluru Couple Get 'Jai Hind, Jai Indian Army' Call, Lose Rs 2 Lakh
Last Updated: A freelance trainer from Bengaluru and her husband lost over Rs 2.1 lakh in a scam involving a fake job offer from Army Public School It started with a job offer and ended in a costly scam. On July 9, a woman from Bandipalya, Bengaluru, was duped out of more than Rs 2.1 lakh in a slick cyber con that used the name of the Army and played heavily on patriotic emotions to win trust. Harini (name changed), a freelance trainer, was part of a WhatsApp group that regularly shared job leads from across the country. That day, a message popped up: Army Public School in Bengaluru is hiring a communication and discipline trainer. The message included a phone number. Harini dialed it immediately. The man who answered claimed to be part of the administrative staff at APS. He sounded professional, explained the role, and said the school would pay Rs 5,000 per hour for a two-hour session. Harini was thrilled. The man assured her someone from the school's MG Road campus would call her shortly. Minutes later, a WhatsApp voice call came in. This time, the caller introduced himself as a school representative. He praised Harini's experience and said the institution was eager to hire her; but first, she'd have to 'register as a vendor", as per protocol for military-affiliated institutions. That's where the trap began. The caller asked for her Aadhaar details. Then, he explained that she needed to link her UPI ID and complete an OTP verification to finish the onboarding. Harini followed the instructions and entered both her PIN and OTP. In seconds, Rs 26,000 vanished from her bank account. Shocked, Harini questioned the caller. But he didn't hang up. Instead, he doubled down, sending her a forged military ID to prove his legitimacy. He peppered his conversation with patriotic phrases like 'Jai Hind" and 'Jai Indian Army". Harini, confused and convinced, stayed on the line. Then he asked for a secondary number. Harini shared her husband Dinesh's contact. The same playbook was used again. The fraudster called Dinesh, repeated the pitch, and persuaded him to go through the same OTP-based 'registration". This time, the loss was steeper; four separate withdrawals totaling Rs 1.9 lakh. In under an hour, the couple had lost over Rs 2.1 lakh. On Friday, Dinesh filed a complaint at the Bandipalya police station. The couple also contacted their bank and called the National Cybercrime Helpline (1930). Police have registered a case under the Information Technology Act, 2000, and are working to trace and freeze the fraudster's bank accounts. Investigators say the case is part of a growing trend where scammers exploit the credibility of institutions like the military to manipulate victims emotionally, particularly through WhatsApp-based impersonations. Police have urged citizens to avoid sharing Aadhaar, UPI, or banking details with unknown callers, no matter how official they may sound, and to treat all 'job offer" calls requiring OTP sharing as immediate red flags. view comments First Published: July 14, 2025, 17:01 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Grama panchayat member, mother found dead in Vakkom in Kerala
In a suspected case of suicide, a grama panchayat member and his mother were found dead in Vakkom on Monday (July 14, 2025). According to the Kadakkavoor police, the deceased were identified as Arun V., 42, a member of the Vakkom grama panchayat who hailed from Nilakkamukku, and his mother Valsala, 71. The duo were found hanging in a shed behind their house. Arun, a Congress worker, purportedly left a note accusing four persons of falsely implicating him in a case under the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. He had sent the note on WhatsApp to some of his friends. He claimed that this prevented him from obtaining a passport for an overseas job opportunity. Some of the friends who received the note rushed to the scene and discovered the bodies. Arun had reportedly dropped his wife and child at her house a day ago. The police have instituted a probe into the incident. (Suicide prevention helpline: 1056, 0471-2552056)

14 Caught Buying Ganja In Hyderabad IT Hub, A Couple Came With 4-Year-Old
Hyderabad: An operation to bust a ganja distribution network in Hyderabad's IT corridor, Gachibowli, sprang a surprise when officials found that a couple had come to buy ganja with their 4-year-old child. Drug enforcement officials let the mother and child go, but the father tested positive for Ganja use. Officials of the newly launched Elite Action Group for Drug Law Enforcement (EAGLE) carried out the operation on Saturday and caught 14 people buying ganja. They have been referred to certified drug de-addiction centers for treatment and rehabilitation. EAGLE Superintendent of Police Chennuri Roopesh told NDTV that they had been tracking Sandeep, a repeat offender from Maharashtra who sold ganja in Gachibowli locality. His customers are employees in the IT sector and other private sector staff. Intelligence gathered by the unit indicated that the suspect transported approximately 5 kg of ganja in 100 packets, each weighing 50 grams. He sold each of these packets for Rs 3,000. He maintained a database of over 100 regular consumers, communicating through coded WhatsApp messages like "Bhai baccha aa gaya bhai" to let them know that he had arrived with fresh stock. On Saturday, plainclothes officers from EAGLE positioned themselves near a bank, a spot often used for the exchange. Within two hours, they caught 14 people in the act of trying to buy ganja. All 14 tested positive for cannabis use in the on-the-spot urine drug test. Officials were surprised to find that a couple had come to buy ganja with their 4-year-old son. The man tested positive for consumption, and his wife and child were allowed to go. In another case, a couple came to buy ganja. Both tested positive for ganja use. Among those caught are an online trader, an architect, a sales executive in a real estate firm, an IT sector employee and a student. They have been referred to de-addiction centres. Sandeep managed to evade arrest. EAGLE's teams are analysing WhatsApp communication logs, phone numbers, and other digital evidence seized from the consumers' phones to trace his supply network. Police are examining the confiscated database of over 100 customers to uncover the broader distribution chain. "We urge the remaining 86 individuals in the database to voluntarily seek de-addiction treatment before EAGLE initiates further action," the senior police officer said. EAGLE officers say they have planned continued surveillance and targeted operations to cleanse the IT corridor from drug influence. The officers appealed to public, especially youth and students, to resist drugs and ganja and emphasised the rise in crime and anti-social activities linked to addiction. The unit urged parents to monitor their children's activities and encouraged people with information on drug-related activities to contact the police or EAGLE's toll-free number 1908.
