Cryptocurrency Investment Scam In Pune: Case Filed Against 6 For Cheating Youth Of ₹2.25 Crore
A shocking case of cryptocurrency investment fraud has come to light in Pune’s Fursungi area, where a group of individuals allegedly cheated a young man and his friends of ₹2.25 crore. The scam, which began in January 2022, targeted several victims with promises of triple returns on investment in cryptocurrency within 15 months.
The complainant, a 30-year-old resident of Fursungi, filed a complaint at Hadapsar police station, stating that he invested ₹40 lakh with the accused. Although he received ₹28 lakh in refunds, the accused allegedly reinvested the amount elsewhere without his knowledge. The complainant and his friends collectively invested ₹2.25 crore, but the accused failed to provide any refunds.
Police have registered a case against six accused: Isaac Bagwan (Resident of Sangli), Ismail (Founder), Dastgir Patel, Jahangir Khan, Zeeshan Heblikar, and Black Aura Classic YouTuber. An investigation is underway to uncover the extent of the scam and bring the perpetrators to justice.
