Fake Call Centre Busted, Three Held in ₹20-Lakh Cyber Fraud

Some people in India made a fake office that pretended to help people make money by investing and trading.

They called many people and promised them big profits.

But it was a trick, and they took people's money using a fake phone app.

The police found out about the trick and arrested three people.

The police also took away computers, phones, and bank papers from the fake office.

The people who were tricked lost more than 20 lakh rupees, which is a lot of money.

The police think the tricksters may have taken even more money.

The fake office had been running for about six months and called around 100 people every day.

The tricksters got phone numbers from lists of blood donors.

Now the police are working to find out how much money was stolen.
