Delhi Police Arrest 6 in 4 Separate Cyber Fraud Cases
Imagine a group of sneaky people using the internet to trick others.
Recently, the police in Delhi caught six of these people in different situations.
One person was caught for cyberbullying and demanding money after sharing private videos online.
Others were involved in fake scams where they pretended to be police to scare people into sending money, or offered fake jobs that never existed.
Another group tricked people by sending fake messages that looked like they were from a utility company, tricking them into downloading bad apps that stole their bank information.
The police worked hard for a whole week, searching in different places like Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan to catch these criminals and stop them from hurting more people.
They also found phones, ATM cards, and other things used in the scams.
Delhi Police arrested six individuals in four separate cyber fraud cases.

Other cases involved a digital arrest scam, a fake work-from-home job scam, and the use of malicious APK files to steal bank details.
Recovered items include mobile phones, ATM cards, cheque books, and SIM cards.
