The LT Marg police have filed an FIR on a complaint of a 39-year-old businessperson from south Mumbai, who alleged that someone stole his bank account details and made a transaction of $641 (approximately Rs 52,500) on his SBI credit card. As soon as he received a message about the transaction, he contacted the State Bank of India to block the credit card. Later, he received another transaction alert for $588; however, it wasn’t processed because the card had been blocked.

“I have not clicked on any link or shared my OTP with anyone. I suspect that my account details were stolen by hackers and transactions were made without a password or OTP,” the complainant told mid-day. However, sources in the LT Marg police have expressed doubts on the possibility of unauthorised transactions without sharing of details. They said they are collecting information from the bank for further investigation.
