RSD- Sircilla News: A person named Kundan Kumar from the state of Bihar studied till the ninth standard and then dropped out and stayed at home. Many people in his village used to learn computer courses and do frauds online. They took basic computer courses online and did not have enough money for lavish spending, so they cheated innocent people. Deciding to earn easy money and live a luxurious life, since last six months he has been setting up false details of various cement companies and false toll free phone numbers on the online page, and if anyone who needs cement calls on those details, they promise to give cement at a low rate for such innocent people and fraudulently took money from them.

In this order, he has entered a fake customer care number with false details in the name of Birla Cement Company and arranged such that when people who need cement search online, the wrongly entered toll free number 18004192877 will appear on the online page. As expected, he called from the number 8500901402 to 18004192877 registered in the online page and stated that his name is Uttam Anjaiah, Rajannasircilla District, Telangana State and asked that he want 640 bags of non-trade cement of Birla A-1 Company and they said that they will send it.

With the intention of deceiving Uttam Anjaya, Kundan sends his PAN card, GST number, mobile number 8669473108 taken with false documents, next day suspect called victim another mobile number taken with false documents 9775106429 of Hyderabad Birla Company. Anjaya was called by the suspect and asked him to buy 640 bags of non-trade cement belonging to Birla A-1 Company.On 09-05-2023 I will send 640 bags of cement to Uttam Anjaya for which Rs.1,69,600,/- will be deposited in the said bank account and I will send to Uttam Anjaya the bank account number of Kotak Mahindra Bank, which I took with false documents. 1,69,600/- will be deposited.

The next day, Anjaya called Kundan and asked when he will send the cement bags and Kundan told Anjaya that he will send the cement bags only if he pays for 1000 cement bags. On 10-05-2023 Anjaya transferred the remaining 340 cement bags amount to the bank account of Kotak Mahindra Bank which is Rs 95,400.

Anjaya asked Kundan when he will send the cement bags and he said that if he sends another 11000/- rupees he will send the cement bags, so Anjaya realized that he was cheated and on 13-05-2023 filed a complaint in Veernapalli Police Station Cyber Cell SI Junaid, SI Srikanth under CI Mogili. , formed a special team with Constable Nayum and on the basis of modern technology, after knowing that he was in Chamar village of Nalanda district in Bihar state, went there and arrested the accused in the evening of 12-06-2023 in Bihar and caught Rs.2,00,000/- from the accused, three mobile phones. , 6 sim cards, bank pass books were seized.
