Hyderabad: Special Chief Secretary MA&UD, Arvind Kumar has filed a complaint against e- fraudsters for allegedly using his image in a WhatsApp number and sending messages to people.
A conman had put a display picture on WhatsApp profile with number ‘74669-05844’ and sent messages to a few persons. The message sent to one person by the alleged conman read, “Where are you at the moment. Very well, there is something I need you to please do for me urgently as I am currently attending a very crucial meeting with limited phone calls.”
Taking to Twitter, Arvind Kumar wrote, “Some fraudster is seeking money by putting my picture and sending messages from this number. I have filed a complaint with police. This is for second time it’s happening within a month. Please ignore if you have got any such request.”
When contacted the Hyderabad Cybercrime officials said that a complaint was received and they are investigating after booking a case. Earlier this month also, conmen targeted the bureaucrat and sent messages to several persons asking them to send money.
