In Mumbai, a woman fell victim to an Instagram scam, losing millions of rupees. Meanwhile, a mother and daughter in Noida were digitally arrested and defrauded of ₹36 lakh. In a separate incident in Indore, an elderly woman was deceived by fraudsters impersonating officials from TRAI, CBI, and Customs, resulting in a loss of ₹46 lakh.
