Mumbai police have apprehended four individuals from Delhi, implicated in an intricate credit card fraud scheme, an official reported on Saturday.
The suspects, identified as Sajid Khan (22), Sameer Khan (24), Parvez Khan (25), and Nadeem Chaudhary (21), were detained in Mehrauli, Delhi. They allegedly posed as bank officials and tricked victims into providing banking information, resulting in significant financial losses.
According to a May complaint, one of the accused contacted a victim, posing as a bank representative and promising to increase the credit card limit. The victim was directed to a website to enter their bank details, which the accused used to siphon off Rs 91,000. Using call and bank transaction records, police traced Sajid Khan to Chhattarpur, leading to the arrest of all four suspects. They face charges under the Indian Penal Code and Information Technology Act.
