Delhi's Crime Branch dismantled a multi‑state fraud network that operated via Telegram and crypto schemes, resulting in three arrests.
Delhi Police's Crime Branch announced the seizure of an inter‑state fraud syndicate that used the messaging app Telegram to promote fraudulent cryptocurrency investments. The investigation, which spanned several states, culminated in a coordinated raid that led to the arrest of three suspects suspected of orchestrating the scheme. Authorities said the gang lured victims by promising high returns on crypto assets, then vanished with the funds. The arrested individuals are currently in custody and will face further questioning as the probe continues. Police have urged the public to exercise caution when approached with unsolicited crypto investment offers on social media platforms.
