Ahmedabad Inspector Loses ₹5.4 Lakh in Insurance Scam

A police inspector in Ahmedabad received calls from people pretending to work for an insurance company.

They knew details about two of her policies, so their story seemed believable.

They said she could receive ₹19.5 lakh if she paid some charges first.

She sent them money for processing and GST.

The callers then asked for even more money before releasing the payout.

This made her suspicious that something was wrong.

She contacted the cybercrime helpline and filed a police complaint.

The case shows that scammers may use real personal information to appear trustworthy.

People should check insurance claims directly with their insurer before sending money.
