Women duped of ₹72,000 on pretext of booking airline tickets

A case of online fraud was reported in Ahmedabad, where a woman was duped of ₹72,000 in a fraudulent airline ticket booking scheme. The victim, Hina Pathan, a resident of Karanj, has filed a complaint at the Karanj police station after falling prey to the scam.

According to the complaint, Hina received a call on November 27, 2024, from an unknown individual claiming that her son, Moinkhan, a child actor, had been selected for a project in Chennai. The caller instructed her to book an Indigo flight ticket through an offer code provided by them. Hina consulted her brother, Tanveer Karimi, who attempted to book the ticket but found that the provided code was invalid.

Shortly after, the fraudster called again and convinced Hina to transfer ₹49,000 to a given bank account and an additional ₹23,000 through a QR code payment to get the flight tickets booked for her. Upon completing the transaction, the promised flight tickets were not received, and the scammer’s phone was switched off, raising suspicion of fraudulent activity.

Realising she had been duped, Hina immediately contacted the cybercrime helpline (1930) to report the incident. The police have launched an investigation into the scam and are working to trace the perpetrator.

The case is being handed over to the Karanj police station and they have started an investigation in the matter. The officials have gathered details of the phone number and the account which was used in the crime.
