The Delhi Police on Friday arrested an ex-manager of the ICICI Bank as well a qualified MBA along with two associates and busted a gang of cheats who used innocent job seekers to withdraw money from banks through RTGS/NEFT using forged letter heads of firms.
Police said that on March 22, they received a complaint at the Madhu Vihar police station from a man about how Rs 7.5 lakh and Rs 8 lakh was withdrawn from his State Bank of India account and transferred to a youth. Police tracked the youth who claimed he was called by the accused after they found the resumes of the youth on OlX and offered them job. The accused sought bank details of the youth after which the accused siphoned off the money from the account of the bank holders and kept the money with them.
The victim claimed that someone withdrew money from his account by using forged letter head of a firm in which request was made to transfer the money through RTGS and request was also made to issue new cheque book. On the basis of this request the bank transferred to an unknown account. The complainant came to know about this when he received an SMS on his mobile phone.
