Hyderabad doctor duped of Rs 11 crore in crypto investment scam
A recent Cyber fraud case has highlighted the growing trend of doctors being targeted by online scams. A 50-year-old doctor from Banjara Hills fell victim to a cryptocurrency scam, losing a staggering Rs 11.1 crore over a period of three months, driven by the hope of high returns. The Telangana Cyber Security Bureau (TGCSB) has launched an investigation into the incident.
Although many warnings have been issued to alert people about the possibility of fraud in the country, the doctor has become a victim of a fraudulent forex trading platform run by scammers posing as representatives of a reputable company who took advantage of his trust and duped him.
