Dear / Cyber Crime Cell / Telegram Support Team
I am writing to formally report a financial scam carried out by a Telegram user with the ID @official_aaditya_sir, who runs a channel named “Option Gyan”.
On Telegram, this individual claims to offer high returns on investments in options trading. I contacted him and agreed to invest ₹50,000, which he accepted. After the payment, he claimed that the ₹50,000 slot was full and demanded an additional ₹50,000 to proceed. When I requested a refund, he stated that refunds were not possible. Reluctantly, I made the second payment, totaling my investment to ₹1,00,000.
Later, around 2:00 PM IST, he sent me a screenshot claiming I had earned a profit of ₹6,00,000. However, before releasing the funds, he demanded a commission fee of ₹80,000. Despite my hesitation, he assured me the payout would be made within five minutes of this payment. I did not proceed with the ₹80,000 transfer and soon realized this was a scam. Shortly afterward, he blocked me on Telegram.
Here are the details of the bank account and UPI IDs used in this fraud:
Account Number: 254101000012271
IFSC: IOBA0002541
Account Holder Name: Mahesh
UPI ID 1: manmohanmeena667815@okicici
UPI ID 2: mahesh-589@ptyes
Please take immediate action to investigate this user and prevent further fraudulent activity. I am willing to provide any additional information or transaction proofs required to support the investigation.
Looking forward to your assistance
