Bihar police busted a unique scam


Patna:

Impregnate childless women and make big money: that was their business idea. This worked until the gang was busted and three people from Bihar were arrested.

The alleged scam was reported from Kahuara village in Nardiganj sub-district of Nawada district.

According to the police, the cyber fraudsters were running ‘All India Pregnant Job Service’ through which they lured potential customers and then blackmailed them.

According to the offer, they tempted people with an amount of Rs 10 lakh in exchange for impregnating the woman, police said. Even in case of failure, police said, customers were promised an amount ranging from Rs 50,000 to Rs 5 lakh.

“Three people were arrested. They provide ‘All India Pregnant Job Service’ and also run ‘Playboy Service’. Their modus operandi is to place ads on Facebook. Then many people call them. In the name of registration, these people ask potential customers for PAN card, Aadhaar card, selfie and then collect money from people who fall into the trap of this temptation in the name of registration and hotel bookings,” said Deputy Commissioner of Police Imran. Pervez.

Those arrested were identified as Prince Raj, Bhola Kumar and Rahul Kumar.

The police officer said that six mobile phones were recovered from the arrested accused through which WhatsApp chats, photos of customers, audio recordings and banking transaction information were obtained.
