Koraput: A cyber crime racket was busted in Odisha’s Koraput district and three people were arrested in this connection, police said on Wednesday. Jaipur SDPO Harsh B C said that several materials used for making forged documents to defraud persons were seized from their possession.

He said an investigation was initiated after a person living in Kaliyagaon area under Jeypore police station limits had complained that suspicious transactions had taken place in his bank account.

“One of the accused had contacted the complainant and promised to arrange a loan of Rs 1.40 lakh and asked him to open an account in a branch of a private sector bank. Subsequently, the accused managed to obtain the bank passbook, Aadhaar and ATM card details of the complainant,” said the SDPO.

The officer said that investigation revealed that between September 27 and October 3, transactions totaling more than Rs 2 crore were made from the account, which was later frozen.

“During investigation, it was found that the gang had duped people from different cities across the country, and the exact number of victims is not yet known,” the SDPO said.

The police seized several items used by the gang in their fraudulent activities, including three laptops, one tablet, biometric devices, 10 notary rubber stamps, 26 ATM cards, six mobile phones, one teller machine, one printer and Rs 23,500. Cash includes Rs.

Inspector Ishwar Tandi, in-charge of Jepro Sadar police station, said, “The criminals had also forged rubber stamps and prepared fake affidavits to facilitate their fraudulent activities.” One of the arrested people is a resident of Semiliguda town and the other two are from Bhubaneswar.
