Delhi Police have cracked down on an online job scam involving Chinese nationals, arresting three suspects who allegedly duped victims with fake job offers. The gang lured victims into investing money with promises of high returns, police confirmed on Wednesday.
The accused—Sabbir Ahmed, Mohammad Sarfaraz, and Mohammad Dilshad—were apprehended following a probe into suspicious financial transactions. Authorities revealed that the suspects converted the defrauded money into cryptocurrency, which was then transferred via decentralized exchange wallets to handlers in China.
Raids conducted in Uttam Nagar and Batla House resulted in the seizure of Rs 5 lakh in cash, mobile phones, and key financial documents linked to the scam. The police investigation has uncovered a larger criminal network operating similar fraudulent schemes, and efforts to dismantle the entire syndicate are underway.
