Noida: Man files complaint against fraudulent transaction from debit card


A resident, Arvind Kumar, filed a police complaint on Tuesday that Rs 20,000 was debited fraudulently from his account when he was having his debit card in his pocket.

According to police, the victim lived in Sector 60 and worked with a private company in Sector 63 of Noida. The victim has filed the complaint at the Sector-58 police station.

“At around 2 pm on Wednesday night, I received two messages on mobile phone mentioning that Rs 20,000 was debited from my account. I immediately called customer care. They confirmed that the money was withdrawn through the debit card. Soon, I got the card blocked,” said Arvind.

“Then, I went to the bank and asked for the statement of the account. I found that the debit card was used for online shopping. When I complained to the bank official, he asked me to complain at the police station,” he added.

Pankaj Rai, SHO of Sector 58 police station said that police lodged an FIR under IPC section of 420 (Fraud) against the unknown person.

“Police team will also take the help from cyber police to solve the case. Soon, police will get some lead in the case,” Rai added.
