Bhiwandi police have registered FIRs investigating cyber fraud cases involving suspicious bank accounts and an online gift parcel scam. Authorities uncovered eight Bank of Maharashtra accounts linked to a single address used to route funds from investment and trading scams. Separately, a 26-year-old woman lost Rs 22.40 lakh after being lured via social media with promises of an expensive London gift, followed by extortion for customs charges.
