Hyderabad(Jan, 14) : The Hyderabad Cyber Crime Police have arrested two individuals, Himanshu (30) and Praveen (26) from Faridabad, Haryana, for their involvement in creating fake Aadhaar cards, PAN cards, and operating fraudulent bank accounts. Acting on instructions from the absconding Devender Panchal in Delhi, the accused exploited their expertise in generating new Aadhaar cards.
Praveen, who ran an Aadhaar Seva Kendra in Faridabad, was instrumental in producing counterfeit Aadhaar cards. The duo used a fictitious current bank account at ICICI Bank under the name of M/s Ruchika Info System, defrauding an amount of 2.5 crores. The police, investigating a case filed by a victim in Ameerpet, Hyderabad, froze Rs. 6 lakhs in the fraudulent ICICI Bank account. The modus operandi involved supplying current bank accounts for online part-time job/investment scams, utilizing fake ID proofs. The successful crackdown by the Cyber Crime Police highlights the risks associated with fraudulent online schemes, emphasizing public caution against such activities
