Delhi Police Bust Matrimonial Fraud Racket Targeting Men Across IndiaPreviousNext

Delhi Police uncovered a pan-India matrimonial fraud racket operated from Agra by a 29-year-old advocate, Amit Kumar. The scheme involved fake profiles and staged conversations with women posing as brides to deceive men seeking marriage, extracting up to Rs 15,000 per victim. A call centre was raided, leading to the arrest of a woman manager and eight tele-callers. The racket used a registered firm named "Shaadi Partner" and targeted men by charging fees for registration and contact unlocking, with multiple complaints reported nationwide.
