The Cuffe Parade police recently arrested four people for allegedly siphoning off Rs 40,000 from a woman’s account. The matter came to light when the Cuffe Parade resident approached the police to file a complaint when she realised a transaction of Rs 1.20 lakh had taken place from her account without her knowledge. The police are still trying to trace the remaining Rs 80,000.

According to the police, she claimed that she had not shared details of her card or revealed any OTP to anyone. The police also said that she had not received any OTP or a message when the transaction took place. “The woman approached the police on August 7, and we registered an FIR based on the complaint. Of the Rs 1.20 lakh, Rs 40,000 were credited to a Koparkhairane petrol pump,” said a police officer from Cuffe Parade police station.
