Delhi: Woman duped of Rs 2 lakh by fake CBI officials in 'digital arrest' for 6 hrs
NEW DELHI: A woman here allegedly lost Rs 2 lakh in six hours during which she was held under 'digital house arrest' by fraudsters posing as CBI officials, police said on Saturday.
The accused coerced her into transferring money by claiming that her husband, who is an employee of the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC), was arrested in a rape case and they would publicise the matter if she failed to pay them, they said.
The three scamsters -- Raju Ray (29), Guddu Kumar Sharma (29), and Pappu Kumar (22) -- all residents of Bihar, have been arrested, they added.
