A quick-thinking lawyer from Mumbai foiled an attempt by scammers to rob her of Rs 80 lakh by impersonating representatives of a large logistics firm and police authorities, according to police.

On Monday, the fraudsters called the 30-year-old woman, falsely stating that a shipment she was about to transport to Iran contained the synthetic drug LSD. They impersonated workers of a well-known logistics company and claimed that an FIR had been filed against her. They asked for her Aadhaar and PAN card information to address the dispute, reported PTI.
