Gurgaon: A 25-year-old man who allegedly deceived people on behalf of the update of the insurance policy was captured by Gurgaon police.
Police said Shivnath Pathak was used to call people as representatives of the leading insurance aggregator and offered a profitable agreement on potential targets.
After someone agreed, the defendant made them share a copy of their old insurance policy.
He will then edit the same and send it as a renewed policy, and make the target transfer money to his bank account.
Pathak, in fact, was running out of luck when Kabir Jain, a resident of DLF Phase-1, approached the Cyber ​​Gurgaon police station about three months back.
In his complaint, Jain claimed that he received a call from someone who identified himself as a representative of Polisbaaar on 4.
The caller told Jain that vehicle insurance from the Fortuner would end the same as updating.
Jain fell into the trap and was cheated more than Rs 51,000.
Based on his complaint, a case was registered at the Cyber ​​Police Station.
After almost three months of investigation and technical supervision, the police arrested Pathak from Sector 43 in Gurgaon on Monday.
Initially from the Sitamarhi District of Bihar, he had lived in Saket Delhi over the past few years.
He was produced in court and was returned in police custody for four days.
During the initial investigation, the police said, expiration that the defendant used to call insurance policy holders posed as a policy representative of Razar and deceived them by offering favorable offers to update their policies.
“After the target was convinced by the offer, the defendant asked them to share a copy of the old insurance policy in WhatsApp.
Through online software, it is used to change documents in editable formats and change the date and other details needed to forward it to the target as a new insurance policy , “said ACP Karan Goel.
The defendant will then ask his target to transfer the premium amount in his savings account.
“We tried to find out how he managed to get the details of the policy holder,” ACP said.
“The possibility of other people’s involvement cannot be ruled out.”
