The Hyderabad city cybercrime police successfully refunded ₹53 lakh to a victim after an 84-year-old man fell prey to scammers, losing ₹2.88 crore. The case, reported in September 2024, led police to quickly freeze the stolen funds and ask the court for their return. The court ordered the banks to give back ₹53 lakh, which was credited to the victim's account on Wednesday.
A police officer warned, "No police officer will make such calls.Only fraudsters do that. Never send money to them. Block these calls and report them immediately at helpline number 1930 or through the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal at cybercrime.gov.in."
The police encourage everyone to be cautious and report any suspicious calls immediately.
