Bengaluru Woman Loses Lakhs in Fake Lottery Scam

A woman in Bengaluru was tricked into giving away a lot of money.

First, someone called her on WhatsApp and said she had won a lottery, but she needed to pay fees to get the prize.

Then, someone pretended to be a police officer and said she needed to send more money to prove she wasn't doing anything wrong.

She ended up sending almost 12 lakh rupees to different bank accounts.

Now, the police are trying to find the people who did this.
