New Delhi: Delhi police have stumbled upon a new modus operandi of
e-banking fraudsters in which they first hack the Internet banking account of
the target and then get mobile number blocked to prevent the bank customer from
receiving SMS alerts about illegal transactions made by them.
In a recent case, two Nigerians were arrested by the staff of South Delhi
police for allegedly swindling Rs 70 lakh from the bank account of an NRI based
in Japan.
