An 80-year-old man has claimed he was lured by fraudsters into buying a tour package and was duped of Rs9 crore (Dh4,619,609 approx) in two years.
The man identified as Dinesh Patel from Ahmedabad city in Gujarat, India, on Monday filed a complaint with cybercrime police accusing 33 persons of duping him.
The elderly man told police he first fell into the trap after he received an email from a leading travel firm offering him a tour package for Rs10,000 and an assured gift in October 2017.
According to report in Times of India, the man paid Rs10,000, following which different people approached him and cheated him on several instances. He alleged that the fraudsters asked him to make payments through online banking between October 18, 2017 and November 27, 2019.
Patel, who worked with different textile firms and is now retired, said that in two years he paid Rs9 crore in 80 different transactions ranging from Rs10,000 to Rs50 lakh.
However he was never given either the tour package nor his money was returned. Patel realised he was duped when the fraudsters stopped communicating with him, following which he approached police.
Cybercrime police have registered a complaint under charges of cheating, breach of trust and criminal conspiracy along with charges of Information Technology act against the accused.
