The Bandra Police has registered an offence after a 32-year-old security guard working at former cricketer Sachin Tendulkar’s bungalow in Bandra West, became a victim of cyber fraud. The fraudster lured the victim on the pretext of a loan and transferred Rs 10,000 in his account, before duping him to the tune of Rs 8,200.

The incident took place on Wednesday morning when security guard Manish Manjrekar, a resident of Chembur, was on duty at the cricketer’s Bandra bungalow. Around 10 am in the morning, he received a call from an unknown number and the caller introduced himself as a representative of a nationalised bank. He asked Manjrekar whether he was in need of a loan and asked him to share his Aadhaar Card, PAN card, debit and credit card details on WhatsApp.
