Annu Kapoor Cheated of Rs. 4.36 Lakh By An Online Scammer Pretending to Be A Bank Employee

As per a report submitted by NDTV, it all happened on September 29 when Kapoor received a call from a man posing as a bank employee.

He said the actor was required to update his KYC. And it’s after that the actor shared his bank details to him. He also shared his One Time Password (OTP), according to the Oshiwara police station.

This is what an official had to say, “Sometime later, the caller transferred Rs. 4.36 lakh from Mr. Kapoor’s account to two other accounts in two transactions. However, the bank immediately called him up to inform him about the transaction and also told him his account was compromised.”

When Annu Kapoor approached the bank and police, he was told to freeze his accounts. “Both the accounts have been frozen by these banks and Kapoor will get back Rs. 3.08 lakh. A case has been registered under the Indian Penal Code and Information Technology Act provisions. Efforts are on to arrest the online fraudster,” the police official said.

On the professional front, Annu Kapoor was last seen in Prime Video series, Crash Course.
