A youth from
Thiruvananthapuram reported Credit-card extortion to the tune of Rs. 88,516
through his SBI credit card on Thursday.
Working in an
automobile showroom, Hari Kumar, a local of Poojappura, proclaimed to have lost
Rs. 88,516 through a solitary exchange. The exchange had occurred through
PayPal, a "digital" wallet, around 11.45 a.m.
Not long after
receiving a SMS alert, Kumar contacted the bank and simultaneously blocked the
card. With the transaction being finished without the need of a
"one-time-password" (OTP), authorities of the bank were dubious that
it could have been conscripted from outside the nation.
Kumar later added that he came to know from
the digital cell that no less than three comparative cases were still pending
before the police.
The Dissensions
however, have been submitted to the District Police Chief of the
Thiruvananthapuram city as well as the Cyber Cell.
