Criminals use KYC Ploy, steal RS 13L from a woman’s account

Pune: The cheater targets the residents of the old Wakad with the KYC update trick and sucked more than Rs 12.6 lakh from a bank account he together operates with her husband.
When receiving complaints from his daughter – a techie – the police reacted quickly and got an account where the villain transferred the money frozen and managed to save Rs 6 lakh.
The incident occurred between 24 and 26 July, police said.
After Cybercrime cells verify complaints, Wakad police registered a formal shoot on Wednesday.
“This is a shared account operated by Techie’s parents.
The mother’s cellphone number is connected to the account.
Details of the KYC account have not been updated,” said Senior Inspector Muglikar.
The police said the fraudsters sent a text message to Ms.
Techie, asked her to update KYC details from the shared account.
Then, posing as bank officials, they call it and offer to update details online.
In the process, they obtain account details, including personal identification numbers (PIN), and transferred Rs 12.60 lakh.
As soon as Techie found, he approached the police, who got a frozen criminal account.
However, at that time, the suspects had resigned Rs 6.6 lakh, police said.
“Techie told us on time.
Before registering FIR, we wrote to a bank where the suspects have an account.
After this, the bank freezes the account, which is also associated with eWallet from the e-commerce website.
We have also written a letter to the website To freeze Ewallet, “said Senior Inspector VVV Muglikar.
“The suspects managed to attract most of the money and did some purchases,” he said.
