Delhi Police Makes Arrest in Rs 29 Lakh Online Job Scam

Authorities in Delhi have apprehended a 44-year-old man for allegedly deceiving a woman out of Rs 29 lakh. The accused, Chotmal Saini from Sikar, Rajasthan, was previously implicated in two other cyber fraud cases. The victim was initially drawn in by an online job advertisement. She was then directed to a website, where she invested money based on the promise of returns that later proved to be false. The investigation revealed that the accused, under the guise of an investment advisor, used social media to guide the victim and encourage further investment. This case highlights the ongoing challenges faced by law enforcement in tackling sophisticated online scams, including the recent bust of a cyber-extortion racket.
