Jodhpur doctor duped of Rs 6 lakh by scammers impersonating police officers
In a recent cyber fraud case, a doctor in Jodhpur was duped out of ₹6 lakh by scammers impersonating police officers. The fraudsters kept the doctor digitally “arrested” for nearly 24 hours and manipulated her into transferring the amount from her account.
The incident occurred days after a doctor from Navi Mumbai fell victim to a cyber fraud, losing Rs. 26.52 lakh. The victim has been identified as a 31-year-old doctor working at Vyas Dental College. He reported the incident to the police after realizing she had been tricked.
