Fraudsters are using the bank accounts of deceased individuals to transfer money obtained through various cyber fraud schemes. The Bangur Nagar police have arrested the duo from Dehli who allegedly used this modus operandi.
The investigation began when the Bangur Nagar cyber cell was looking into an insurance fraud case.
