Delhi doctor cheated of ₹22.7 lakh in fake stock trading app scam; two arrested
New Delhi: Delhi Police have busted a cyber fraud racket involving a fake stock trading application and arrested two men from Haryana for allegedly cheating a Delhi-based Doctor of ₹22.7 lakh, The Times of India reported.
The case came to light after the Doctor filed an online complaint on November 13, stating that she was duped through a fraudulent stock market investment scheme. According to police, she was added to a messaging group where several members posed as experienced stock market experts and discussed investment opportunities related to demat shares.
One of the group administrators, identifying herself as Yalini Guna, convinced the complainant to invest through a trading application shared via a link. Believing it to be genuine, the victim initially invested ₹2.7 lakh in multiple transactions. When she later attempted to withdraw the money, she was pressured to invest additional amounts under various excuses.

Over time, the total amount invested rose to ₹22.7 lakh. Soon after, the victim was blocked from the application and removed from the group, following which she realised she had been cheated. A case was then registered and a special team was formed to investigate the matter.
During the investigation, police tracked the money trail and identified that part of the defrauded amount had been transferred to a bank account belonging to Sameer (22), a resident of Hisar in Haryana. Analysis of call detail records further revealed the involvement of another accused, Dev Singh (22).
Based on the findings, police conducted raids in Hisar on November 10 and arrested both accused. “During interrogation, Sameer disclosed that he opened 5 to 6 bank accounts in different banks and handed them over to Dev Singh in exchange for Rs 4,000 per account, which were then used for routing the fraud money,” DCP Gautam said.
Police seized 2 mobile phones and 3 SIM cards from the accused. Both were sent to judicial custody.
Police said the accused targeted victims through social media platforms by posing as financial experts and luring them with promises of guaranteed high returns. Victims were initially shown small profits to gain trust and were later coaxed into investing larger sums. Once the money was transferred, the fraudsters cut off all communication.
Further investigation is underway, police said.
