The Karnataka High Court has refused to quash a case against two people accused of defrauding e-commerce company Amazon Seller Services Pvt Ltd to the tune of Rs 69 lakh through a fake returns system where 104 high-end products were bought online and returned for a refund after replacing the original item with a cheaper one.

Sourish Bose, 39, and Deepanvita Ghosh, 54, are accused of defrauding Amazon between 2016 and 2017 by ordering expensive electronic products like televisions and mobile phones and carrying out fake returns while keeping the original products with them.
