Online ‘friendship’ costs Lko youth ₹68L; STF nabs Nigerian fraudster in Delhi
LUCKNOW It began with a Facebook ‘friendship’ with a woman who claimed to be from England and ended with a Lucknow youth allegedly losing ₹68 lakh to a sophisticated cyber fraud network, according to the UP Special Task Force.
The STF has now arrested a 37-year-old Nigerian national allegedly wanted in the case, unravelling the chain of deception that investigators said was built around a fake foreign identity, promises of expensive gifts and repeated demands for money.
