The officials on Wednesday said that cyber fraudsters posing as Delhi ATS and Jammu and Kashmir police personnel cheated an elderly woman from Mumbai of Rs 22 lakh after accusing her of spying for Pakistan, reported news agency PTI.

This is the first case in the city of a cyber fraud using espionage as a guise to cheat people, an official claimed.

The 64-year-old woman, who lives at Girgaon in south Mumbai, approached the South Region Cyber Police Station last week, reported PTI.
