TN cybercrime wing traces ‘FedEx’ scam kingpin to Bangladesh; arrest seven from Gujarat, Maharashtra

CHENNAI: In a major breakthrough, Tamil Nadu police’s cyber crime wing has traced the tentacles of the ‘FedEx’ scam to a kingpin in Bangladesh, an official release on Friday said.

The release, however, did not say whether the police have uncovered the identity of this kingpin.

This came up during the investigation of a case where a Chennai resident was scammed of Rs 1.18 crore recently, in which seven men from Maharashtra and Gujarat were arrested.
