A Udupi native who was defrauded of over Rs three lakhs in a part-time job scam, lodged a complaint with cyber crime police here.
The victim Prashant was contacted by an unknown person through social media regarding a part-time job. He was asked to complete a given task for a certain amount of money.
Once he finished the task, the miscreants directed him to deposit money into a bank account to withdraw his earnings. In his complaint, Prashant claimed that he transferred Rs. 3,01,000 in multiple transactions to various bank accounts online between October 22 and 30, as instructed by the perpetrator.
He sensed something amiss when he did not recover the funds and registered a complaint.
