Now fraud on online insurance installment platform is also going on. The Kwarsi police arrested a gang from Noida with the help of a cyber cell. The gang leader succeeded in escaping. But four gang members were caught. This gang has so far transferred several crores of rupees to a Bangalore account. The police is now engaged in an attempt to arrest the kingpin. The four arrested members have been sent to jail.
According to SP City Kuldeep Singh Gunawat, a resident of Kishan Pur had filed a case of cheating last year at kwarsi police station, stating that he searched online platform to deposit insurance premiums.
During this time, many platforms resembling his insurance company came out. He inadvertently filled his details in the wrong platform and deposited two installments of Rs 35000 and Rs36000 online. But after that he did not get any money back. When this was suspected, we also called the numbers on the platform. However, a satisfactory answer was not found. Later, when contacted at the local office of the insurance company, it was clear that he had become a victim of fraud. When the kwarci Police started the investigation with the help of cyber cell in this case, the whereabouts of Chhalira Sector 44 Noida came on the radar.
According to SP City, the police arrested four people on a rampage and a large amount of electronic equipment etc. were recovered from the spot. The arrested people told their names as Kiran Chauhan - resident of Chhalaira Noida, Rishabh - resident of Purdilnagar Sikanderrau Hathras and present address Sadarpur Noida, Deepak - resident of Ferozepur Kasganj and present address Sadarpur Noida and Varsha - resident of Nagla Tikona Kwarsi, present address Sadarpur Noida. All have been booked and sent to jail under the sections of Fraud and IT Act. CO III Anil Samania, Inspector Chhotalal etc. were present during the arrest.
During interrogation, the gang members admitted that this fraud runs under Manish of Ghaziabad in form of a call center. He has opened an account with RBL Bank, Bangalore. In the same account, the fraudulent money was transferred. First, all the four arrested employees call unemployed youths from getting jobs in insurance company and to deposite their installments etc. Then transfer the installment or processing fees from fake name to wallet account and then transfer the money from wallet to Bangalore account. In the recent past, several crores of rupees have been exchanged in this account.
