Authorities seized three mobile phones used in the fraudulent activities. A case has been registered, and further investigations are ongoing. The juveniles used a deceptive tactic involving fake tax messages. They would send SMS alerts to random individuals, mimicking official bank notifications about funds being credited. Victims were then tricked into returning the money, believing it had been mistakenly deposited into their accounts. The operation was carried out by SHO Hitesh Sharma, ASI Umardin, Head Constable Sugan Singh, and Constables Suresh Chand and Rinku Ram. The Rajasthan Police earlier in January this year had launched Operation Cyber Shield to tackle cybercrime, focusing on resolving complaints, identifying hotspots, blocking suspicious SIMs, and raising public awareness. The campaign aimed to crack down on cyber criminals, resolve pending cyber cases, and create public awareness about cyber security.
