Mangaluru: In a major cyber fraud, an individual allegedly lost about Rs 44,500 after updating the KYC details of the bank account to prevent the account from being blocked, as claimed by an anonymous caller
An unidentified person contacted the complainant at 11:30 am on Wednesday, stating that the bank account had been blocked. The caller then told the complainant to update the KYC details in order to unblock the account. Falling for it, the complainant provided the customer ID, ATM card details, and account information to the caller.
Subsequently, the complainant also shared the One-Time Password (OTP) he/she received, unknowingly granting access to the account. Within a short period, Rs 44,500 was withdrawn from the victim's bank account, prompting the complainant to report the incident as an unauthorized transfer.
A case has been registered at the CEN Police Station and investigation is underway.

Trump says he ‘hasn’t even thought about’ continuing Iran ceasefire
Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
