However, the next day, he got an SMS alert stating a withdrawal of Rs 9,000 from his account. Before he could realise what happened, heu00a0 received another message informing that a sum of Rs 10,000 has been deducted from his account.

The Commercial Street police, who have taken up the complaint, said that they have sought the transaction details from the bank along with the CCTV footage of the ATM. We will decide upon the further course of action only after verifying the transaction details, the police said.
