A 43-year-old woman professor at a city college has become the latest victim of the ‘Nigerian fraud’, losing around Rs 11.50 lakh to cheats who sent her an email stating she had won $8,50,000 under an “ICC World Cup Mobile Lucky Draw”.

The city cyber cell said that they had been sensitising people about the email trick popularly called Nigerian fraud, but the greed was making people fall prey to it even now.

The complaint in the case was registered by Madhavi Charudatta Bangal, a resident of Warje-Malwadi. The police registered an offence against two people identified as Sonia Sharma and Philip Omogo.
