Adivasi cheated of Rs 8.5 lakh in the name of Kaun Banega Crorepati

Deccan Chronicle  

ADILABAD: Adivasis are also falling prey to cyber fraud in this region. An Adivasi youth was cheated of Rs 8.5 lakh by cyber fraudsters by faking the popular Kaun Banega crorepati TV gameshow in Komaram Bheem Asifabad district, it is alleged. It is learnt that the fraudsters called Atram Ravinder regularly and motivated him to pay the amounts towards taxes to clear the BMW from the government agencies. Ravinder says he got a message on his mobile one day, saying he won the Kaun Banega Crorepati game and would get a BMW of the value of Rs 25 lakh. At one point, the fraudsters told Ravinder that he had no ‘minimum balance’ in his bank account, so he must pay Rs 50,000 towards taxes to claim the BMW car.
