The Delhi Police arrested two senior members of the Jamtara cyber‑fraud network accused of running a fake bank website that swindled victims of Rs 27.10 lakh.
Delhi Police announced the arrest of two alleged leaders of the Jamtara‑based cyber fraud ring. The suspects were taken into custody in Delhi after investigators linked them to a fraudulent online banking portal that reportedly defrauded victims of a total of Rs 27.10 lakh.
According to a statement released by the police, the fake website mimicked a legitimate bank’s interface, prompting users to enter personal and financial details. The information was then used to siphon funds from unsuspecting account holders.
The arrests are part of a broader crackdown on cyber‑crimes that have plagued several Indian states in recent years. Police officials said further interrogations will aim to uncover the full extent of the network’s operations and identify additional accomplices.
No official comment was received from the accused or their legal representatives at the time of reporting.
