Fraud
Mandi, 08 September: If you have opened or are going to open a separate bank account in the greed of earning money sitting at home, then be careful. Because you will definitely get money sitting at home, but you may also have to go to police custody soon. The second bank account that you have opened or are going to open in the greed of earning money sitting at home is used for fraudulent transactions worth lakhs.
More than 400 people of Himachal Pradesh have got lured by this and have opened separate accounts and transactions worth hundreds of crores have been done through it. Most of the accounts are such from which transactions of huge amounts of more than 50 lakhs have been done. All these accounts have been frozen by the police of various states of the country. Information about all these accounts has reached Himachal Pradesh Cyber Crime Police and the police of the states which have frozen these accounts are now coming here and investigating them. ASP Manmohan Sharma of Cyber Crime Police Mandi Range has confirmed this. He has appealed to the people to avoid online fraud and not to fall prey to such temptations.
This is how the lure of earning money from home is given
Such advertisements are run by the cunning people on social media or other platforms of web media in which the lure of earning money from home is given. When people contact them, they give some small tasks to the people, which makes people feel that this is a very easy way to earn money from home. But in return they ask you to open a separate bank account. By registering your mobile number in this account, they also ask you to send its ATM and online password to them. Your commission keeps coming in your old account and you think that you are earning well from home. But you do not know that the account which you have opened and handed over to them, they do illegal transactions worth lakhs.
Banks become alert on any big transaction
Whenever any big transaction takes place in a person’s bank account, the concerned bank branch becomes alert about it. The bank contacts the customer regarding that transaction. When this transaction seems suspicious, its information is given to cyber crime after which the account is frozen. Similarly, more than 400 accounts of people of Himachal Pradesh have been frozen. Now the police is investigating all of them, then it has come to light from most of them that they are working to earn money sitting at home and under that they have opened a separate bank account.
Cyber Crime Police appeals, do not get misled in any way
ASP Manmohan Sharma of Cyber Crime Police has appealed to the people that they should not take any wrong step by falling into any such trap due to which they have to face problems in future. Such misleading advertisements are seen on many social media platforms or websites and do not trust them. If you feel that something wrong is happening to you, then immediately contact the police, so that you can avoid becoming a victim of any big fraud or crime.
