Victims Lose Millions in Digital Arrest Scams

Two people in India lost a lot of money in scams.

Fraudsters called them, pretending to be police officers.

They said the victims were in trouble and needed to pay money to avoid being arrested.

The victims were scared and gave the fraudsters a lot of money from their savings and investments.

Later, they realized it was a scam and told the police.

The police are now investigating, but no one has been caught yet.

This type of scam is called a digital arrest scam, and it is becoming more common.
