Surat Digital Scam Busted ₹20.5L

In a significant crackdown, Gujarat Cybercrime Police arrested seven individuals in Surat for orchestrating a ₹20.5 lakh digital arrest scam. The accused impersonated law enforcement officers, threatening victims with false legal consequences to extort large sums of money.

Using fake identities and spoofed calls, the gang exploited fear to manipulate unsuspecting targets into transferring funds. Authorities initiated an investigation after receiving multiple complaints, eventually using technical surveillance and call tracing to identify and apprehend the culprits.

Officials are urging citizens to remain vigilant and avoid responding to suspicious calls or demands for payment. This incident highlights the rising trend of cyber fraud in India and the need for greater public awareness to prevent such crimes.
