Hyderabad: Bollywood actor Sonu Sood on Tuesday thanked the police in Telangana for arresting the fraud that deceived the public by his name.
Sood shared a photo of the evildoer with his eyes covered and wrote: ‘Thank you @ cyberabadpolice @ TelanganaCOPs @ cpcybd @ TelanganaDGP for helping us catch the culprits who are trying to deceive the needy. If you request all fraud to stop their activities, they will soon be behind bars. Stop cheating on poor people. ”
“Warning fraudsters. Do not deceive and deceive the needy. We’re behind you. The first cheater was caught! You will be the next one, ”he wrote in another tweet.
According to reports, the deceiver pretended to be an employee of a charity and allegedly deceived people by promising help in the actor’s name. When the victim asked for help with Rs 10 000, the fraudster asked for the former’s family details, Aadhaar card number and bank account details.
The accused posted his phone number on Twitter as a helpline from Sonu Sood Corporation. When people in need called for help, he tricked them into sending him money as disguise of registration and to process money for receiving larger amounts later.
The charge of fraud was filed in early March by a man coming from Telangana.
Police in Cyberabad on April 3 arrested and arrested the guilty Ashish Kumar Singh of Muzaffarpur in Bihar. Ashish allegedly committed fraud by raising Rs 60,000 under the name ‘Sonu Sood Corporation’.
Sonu Sood tells Business Today that he is aware of the arrest and has urged people to be wary of such fraud.
