Rs 10 Lakh Pregnancy Job Scam Busted in Bihar
In Bihar, India, the police found a tricky online scam.
Bad people tricked men by saying they could earn Rs 10 lakh (a lot of money) by helping women have babies.
They used fake ads on Facebook and WhatsApp.
The ads showed pretty pictures of women to make the men trust them.
But before any meeting, the men had to pay money for fake things like registration and hotel bookings.
The bad people kept asking for more money until the men realized they were being cheated.
Many men lost a lot of money, but they were too embarrassed to tell the police.
The police caught two people involved in the scam, including a young person.
They also took four phones used for the fraud.
The police said similar scams have happened before and asked people not to believe unrealistic offers online.

Police arrested Ranjan Kumar and a minor, seizing four mobile phones used in the fraud.
