Five Held for Rs 3 Crore Online Ticket Fraud in Hyderabad

Five Held for Rs 3 Crore Online Ticket Fraud in Hyderabad

Imagine a company that sells tickets online.

Some people who worked as agents for this company found a mistake in its computer system.

This mistake meant that when they booked tickets and then cancelled them, the system would give them back the money they paid, but also not take away the money from their online wallet.

It was like getting the money back twice!

The agents used this trick many times between May and July to add lots of fake money to their online wallets.

They then used this fake money to make more bookings and steal real money from the company.

The police caught them, and they have been arrested.

They also warned other companies to check their computer systems carefully to prevent this from happening again.
