Man dupes people in CDMs, deposits amounts in his own accounts

RAJKOT: Rajkot rural police arrested a person for allegedly duping several people of lakhs of rupees including his employer by opening multiple bank accounts using fraudulent documents.
Accused Rajil Javiya, a native of Junagadh and resident of Rajkot, was operating nearly 16 bank accounts in various public sector and private banks branches in Rajkot and Junagadh.
According to the police Javiya used to target gullible labourers and senior citizens who are not well versed with technology. He used to stand outside various Cash Deposit Machines (CDM) and would offer people help when he saw them struggling to use the technology.
Talking to the media, Superintendent of police, Rajkot, Balram Meena said, “In the pretext of helping people deposit money in CDMs, Javiya would take their money and deposit it in own accounts in various banks.” The police said he opened multiple bank accounts with forged documents like PAN cards and election cards.
While working as an accountant with Rajdeep Corporation of Shapar in outskirt of Rajkot, Javiya had allegedly duped the owner of the company Kishor Vaghani by using Vaghani’s credit card to deposit Rs 5 lakh in his own account. He then presented fraudulent purchase bills and transferred another Rs 8 lakh from the company’s bank account in his own accounts through RTGS.
The police has recovered 12 passbooks of various banks and 18 debit and credit cards. The police asked banks to freeze the accounts with immediate effect.
