Kerala police nab five for running fake online fund transfer racket in Delhi

He said Kerala police, with the help of their counterparts in Delhi, raided Khirki extension. “They resisted the police attempt to enter their houses fortified with huge iron gates, but our personnel managed to overpower the Nigerians,’’ said the officer.

On the modus operandi of the racket, Jayaraj said the gang would first track their victims with mobile messages saying that they have won huge sum and would require their bank account and other details for transfer of the fund. In the next stage, they would seek a tranche of sum as a prerequisite for handing over the prize money. They have forged several banking documents to convince their prey, said the officer.
