Police focus on hidden ‘investment faces’ linked to high-end cyber fraud in Kochi
KOCHI: Cybercrime investigators are probing what officials describe as a hidden network of financially established “investment faces” allegedly used to absorb and circulate money generated through large-scale online fraud.
The probe gained momentum following recent major cyber fraud cases reported in the district, including a Rs 25-crore online-trading fraud under investigation by Kochi City police and another case in which a 75-year-old citizen allegedly lost nearly Rs 11 crore through a fake online investment platform.
