Consequently, Sundaram’s number was added in the WhatsApp group of the company and he received a bogus website link. Between April 11 and May 28, Sundaram invested Rs 20 lakh in the bogus share schemes of the company.
As the bogus website was showing huge profit on the investments, Sundaram tried to withdraw the money. However, the money could not be withdrawn. Sundaram soon realised the fraud.
An offence under Sections 419, 420, 465, 467, 468, 471 and 34 of Indian Penal Code was registered by MIDC Police.
