The arrested fraudsters are J Sathyanarayanan (30), K Kisan Chaudhary(20),  K Sunil Saran(23) and P Sandeep Kumar(26} all from Rajasthan. They were trapped due to a police complaint by Ramasamy who stated that he received a vague WhatsApp invite to join an online trading arrangement on WhatsApp in December last year.  The message was trailed by a call from an unknown caller. The victim was lured to download a trading app called BAIN by showcasing huge profit generation on trading on the same. Being dazzled by the fabricated figures, Ramasamy was made to transfer 9.28 lakh to multiple bank accounts shared by the stranger in return of a promise made by stranger that he would trade on Ramasamy’s behalf and update the profits generated on the app. The app signified huge profit figures made by Ramasamy by online trading.

Beware of any unsolicited courier news

The most recent scamming incidents have erupted from fake courier consignments or shipments. The most notable name in the scam is FedEx. A similar fraud was bound to happen with me had I not acted cautiously. About 15 days ago, I got a call from an unknown contact portraying to be manager from FedEx. He reported that a consignment sent by me is refused to be delivered to consignee because of some illegal content apprehended in sent courier. I was advised to speak with the customer care representative for further elaboration. So being stressed about likelihood of becoming a legal defaulter, I was about to reach the customer care by adhering the IVR instruction. That fear of becoming a defaulter and the press of that one customer care number would actually have made a victim rather than an offender. I took a minute and thought if I had ever: The answer was known only to me. And it was a big no. I disconnected the call and blocked the contact. Similar actions are being taken on WhatsApp and through emails carrying invitations and links. Here I would request all to take help of the savior platform like myajuna.com that carries out all verification as to whether the link leads to a genuine business or not. Source: Personal experience
