Mumbai Police ne ek bade insurance fraud racket ka pardafash karte hue 12 aaropiyon ko giraftar kiya hai. Police ki karwai ke dauran 3 fake call centres ka bhi bhandaphod hua, jahan se logon ko insurance policy ke naam par thaga ja raha tha.
Police ke mutabik, aaropi khud ko insurance company ke representative batakar logon ko phone karte the. Woh policy renewal, bonus, maturity amount ya attractive insurance offers ka jhaansa dekar victims se paise transfer karwa lete the.
Investigation ke dauran saamne aaya ki is gang ne karib ₹17 lakh ki thagi ko anjaam diya. Police ne raid ke dauran call centres se mobile phones, laptops, computers aur anya electronic devices bhi jabt kiye hain, jinhe forensic examination ke liye bheja gaya hai.
Police ab yeh bhi jaanch kar rahi hai ki is racket ka connection kisi doosre shehar ya interstate cyber fraud network se to nahi hai. Saath hi, aur bhi victims aur gang ke anya sadasyon ki talaash jaari hai.
Mumbai Police ne logon se appeal ki hai ki kisi bhi insurance policy se jude call ya payment request par bina verification ke bharosa na karein aur hamesha official channels ke zariye hi transaction karein.
