Crime Branch busts 'Digital Arrest' racket, 6 held

New Delhi, Nov 16 (UNI) The Delhi Police Crime Branch on Sunday said that they have dismantled an organised syndicate behind sophisticated "digital arrest" scams, arresting six individuals for allegedly swindling Rs 49 lakh from a 71-year-old woman.
The victim was reportedly held under virtual confinement for nearly 24 hours by fraudsters posing as law enforcement officials.
The investigation was launched following a formal complaint from the elderly victim. The perpetrators used a combination of spoofed official communication, intimidation, and psychological manipulation to convince the woman that she was facing serious legal action, coercing her into transferring the massive sum to various bank accounts.
