Delhi Police arrests 2 people for running fake voter ID website
By MYBRANDBOOK
Delhi Police busted a gang running a fake website voteridcard.ebharatseva.in and arrested two persons Ankit Kumar Pal (26) and Manmohan Singh (22), who were allegedly behind the fraud in Uttar Pradesh. Police said both men managed to cheat over 10,000 people till date.
One of the complainants told police he wanted a few details changed in his Voter ID card and when he opened the website and filled in the application, he was directed to a payment gateway asking for ₹650 as mandatory charges.
After making the payment, he received emails from info@ebharatseva.in and no-reply@razorpay.com regarding the success in the payment process. However, when there was no further response, the complainant got suspicious and soon realized that he was a victim of cyber fraud.
They had also promoted the fake website by paying money for Google advertisements so that it would appear as a "top search" option. One of them told the police that one of their associates, whom he had met in Noida while looking for a job, came up with the idea of cheating people on the pretext of helping them apply for voter identity cards. Based on the information given by them, a resident of Amroha in Uttar Pradesh was also nabbed, the police said.
DCP Shweta Chauhan said, “During investigation we found the payment was processed through Razorpay payment gateway and credited on an account registered in the name of Titu Cyber Cafe. The proprietor was identified as Manmohan Singh. During interrogation, he confessed his involvement and disclosed the complicity of his accomplice Ankit Kumar Pal. Both men belong to UP.”
