<h1>Rs 2.35 crore stock market scam; two alleged mule account providers held for layered bank fraud network</h1> Delhi Police arrested two alleged professional mule account providers in connection with an organised stock market investment scam that cheated a Delhi resident of about Rs 2.35 crore. Acting on an FIR registered on February 21, investigators found the victim was lured via social media by a purported investment advisor using fabricated profit records, induced to invest repeatedly, and later denied withdrawals through manipulated dashboards and pressure tactics. The cheated funds were routed through multiple layered bank accounts, including a key current account in the name of a firm, and at least 10 first-layer mule accounts. The arrested individuals allegedly procured bank accounts from others, transferred full banking kits and access to cybercrime handlers, and enabled remote handling of inflows, transfers, and withdrawals. Further investigation is ongoing to identify additional conspirators.
