Warangal police on Friday busted Mancherial district-based 13-member gang duping people with false offers of online gifts. An amount of ₹14.36 lakh, 15 mobile phones and scores of scratch cards were recovered from them, said Warangal Police Commissioner Tarun Joshi.
Addressing a press conference, Mr. Joshi said the gang operated from a rented flat in Kolkata of West Bengal. Three others engaged by the gang to assist them are absconding and a hunt is on to nab them.
The kingpins Ippa Raj Kumar and Tallapally Damoder Goud, both from Bellampally, hatched a plot to trick people into parting with money throwing online shopping gifts as baits.
