India's Cyber Crime Crackdown Expands

The police in different parts of India have been working hard to catch people who are doing bad things online.

They found 14 cases of cheating and arrested 32 people.

The police helped give back Rs 1,06,02,740 to victims.

One person lost Rs 2.9 crore in a fake investment scam.

Another elderly lady lost Rs 56.5 lakh because scammers scared her.

In Delhi, scammers pretended to be bank officials and tricked people into installing bad software on their phones.

They stole Rs 8.33 lakh through a fake loan and made unauthorized transactions.

In Kolkata, police arrested five more people who were sending bad files to people's phones to steal money.

The Supreme Court is also involved in a case where a 78-year-old man was tricked into giving Rs 23 crore.

The police say to be careful and not share your bank details with strangers.

If someone calls and asks for money, it's probably a scam.

You can report these bad people to the police.
