Three Women Scammed in Thane District Share Trading Fraud
Three women from Maharashtra's Thane district collectively lost more than Rs 1 crore after being duped in a share trading scam, police announced on Sunday.
The women, from Dombivli and Ulhasnagar areas, were cheated over the past three months. Frauds promised them high returns on investments in shares, but the victims, aged between 30 and 44, received nothing—neither their principal investments nor any returns, according to the FIRs.
Two of the women lost over Rs 30 lakh each, while the third lost over Rs 40 lakh. Authorities are currently working on identifying the culprits behind these fraudulent activities.
