GUNTUR: Bapatla police have busted a nationwide cybercrime syndicate that preyed on faith and wanderlust, duping devotees and tourists through fake websites of India’s most revered temples and scenic resorts.
Operating from a remote village in Rajasthan, the gang created fraudulent websites resembling the portals of prominent pilgrim centres like Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams, Srisailam, Trimbakeshwar, and Haritha Resorts run by Andhra Pradesh Tourism Development Corporation at Suryalanka.
