New Delhi: Six people, who were allegedly involved in three different cases of scams involving online cryptocurrency investment, child modelling and fake electricity bill update, were arrested recently. While four of them were arrested from Jaipur, two were nabbed in Delhi. The three modi operandi were exposed by a team, which was led by sub-inspector Sahil Gahlawat and inspector Birender Singh. Authorities have so far identified 110 complaints associated with these crimes.
DCP (Dwarka) Ankit Singh reported the arrest of four individuals in Jaipur, three of whom operated fraudulent investment schemes through fake websites like ‘MONEYDADDY.LIVE’. Bipul Kumar (44), Sharwan Pareek (55) and Avadhesh Udaiwal (41) were the three people arrested in this connection. Mukesh Kumar (30) used to trick vulnerable citizens into believing that they had pending power bills, leading them to pay unnecessary fees.
Devender Singh and Bhupender Mahamana were arrested in Nangloi for operating a bogus child modelling agency. They lured parents into believing that, for a substantial fee, they could secure roles for their children in reality TV shows and daily soaps.
Police recovered five mobile phones and five active sim cards during the operation. Transactions of nearly Rs 5 crore were traced to the suspects’ bank accounts. tnn
