A large number of complaints are being received by Nagpur police about fraud international calls. The callers are using the DP of any police officer to misguide the call receiver.
Most of the calls are related to students studying in professional colleges. The callers inform about the arrest of the student on the charges of theft, robbery, rape, etc and demand huge sums for releasing them.
Police complaints have been lodged by the call receiver. One of the complainants quoted a police officer that 30 to 40 such complaints are received by them almost every day.
Fortunately, there is no report of anyone falling victim to these fraud callers. With the information received from the call receivers, it appears that the caller is playing mischief, as the mode of transfer of the demanded amount was not specified.
