A principal of a fire academy living in Godhra lost Rs 1.2 lakh from his bank account last month to cyber fraudsters.

The victim, Rohit Patel, who has an account in a private bank’s branch in Udalpur village of Desar taluka, lodged a complaint of cheating under the Information Technology Act on Friday at Desar police station.

Patel said that when he opened the mini-statement of his bank account on October 11, he found that Rs 1.2 lakh had been withdrawn from his account. Patel checked his bank balance as he had to transfer money to someone. Between October 6 and 11, money was transferred from his bank account to different accounts in four different banks. TNN
