Panchkula, November 25

A Kalka man lost Rs 4.35 lakh from his bank account to cyber fraudsters. The victim, Abhishek Singh (30), a resident of Housing Board Colony, Kalka, told the police that while checking the account statement on November 16, it came to his notice that that an unauthorised transaction of Rs4.35 lakh had been made from his savings account in the Union Bank of India.

“I didn’t receive any SMS from the bank for the debit transactions. All transactions were done through UPI and it reflected in my bank statement that the debited amount went to ICICI Bank accounts,” Singh mentioned in his complaint. A case was registered under Section 420 of the IPC at the Kalka police station. — TNS
