Gone are the days when extortionists and blackmailers would take advantage of people’s religious beliefs and superstitions and extort money from them by pretending to be “Djinn er Badshah” the king of genies over the phones.

A middle-aged homemaker pleaded while calling the hotline number of Police Cyber Support for Women (PCSW) wing at the Police Headquarters around midnight on November 29.
The victim said she gave an alert post on Facebook that her sister s ID had been hacked. Responding to it, a woman called her on messenger and said it would take money to recover the hacked ID.
During further communication, the caller hacked this woman s ID and demanded the victim engage in some unsocial activities or pay a huge sum of money to get her ID back.
