A woman returning home from a bank was reportedly defrauded of ₹20,000. The incident occurred shortly after she had withdrawn the money from the bank. Unidentified tricksters cleverly lured the woman into their trap, making off with her cash.

According to available information, the woman had just withdrawn the sum from her bank. As she exited the premises, some individuals began following her and engaged her in conversation. The fraudsters used a deceptive pretext, possibly offering to exchange notes or provide some form of assistance, to confuse her. Before the woman could fully comprehend the situation, the culprits snatched the money from her and fled the scene.

Deeply shaken by the incident, the woman has filed a complaint at the local police station. Authorities have registered the case and initiated an investigation. Police are currently reviewing CCTV footage from the vicinity in an attempt to identify the perpetrators. The public is advised to remain vigilant after withdrawing money from banks and to avoid trusting strangers, especially when carrying large sums or traveling alone. These types of scams often involve organized gangs operating near banks, targeting unsuspecting customers. The police urged the public to report any suspicious individuals loitering near banks immediately.
