The Central Crime Branch officials arrested a 37-year-old software engineer for allegedly cheating cybercrime victims by offering legal aid and escaping with the money on the pretext of service charges.
His arrest followed a complaint filed by one of the victims who had lost ₹1.5 crore in a cyber fraud in Ramamurthynagar. He was looking for help online, when the accused allegedly approached him posing as the representative of ‘Quickmoto Legal Service’ and made away with ₹12.5 lakh this February.
