Parsa Police on Friday made public three people, including a minor, involved in an online scam. The police made them public by holding a press conference at the District Police Office.
Based on a special tip-off, the police arrested those who had been defrauding the public by luring and deceiving the public in various ways from the road section in front of Prabhu Hospital in Birgunj Metropolitan City-8 at around 12 noon on Wednesday.
Those arrested include Krishna Prasad, 35, of Musaili, Birgunj Municipal City-29, Rahul Mandal, 21, of Bara Bishrampur Rural Municipality-1, and a 14-year-old minor. They have been found to have been defrauding people by opening ‘money mall accounts’ of various banks and using social media platforms to create fake online business scams and AI-based orders and bills of goods, creating documents required by various companies.
They have also been found to have made illegal transactions worth more than Rs 100 million using the bank accounts and digital wallets of various individuals. 43 ATM cards of various banks have also been recovered from them. Parsa Police Spokesperson DSP Hari Bahadur Basnet informed that further investigation is underway after obtaining permission from the Parsa District Court for a three-day extension in the banking offence case against them.
This gang has been active in almost all districts of Madhesh Province for about a month. There were widespread complaints from industrialists and businessmen that the gang used the names of big companies to place orders for the purchase of goods and then disappeared after receiving the goods orders after making payment through fake checks.
