Today's headline sheds light on a disturbing trend in Delhi: the rise of scams through dating apps. Recently, the Delhi Police made a significant breakthrough by arresting members of a gang involved in duping young men under the guise of dates at restaurants.
The gang's modus operandi was to create fake profiles on dating apps, enticing victims to meet at various eateries. Once at the venue, victims were coerced into paying exorbitant bills, often under threat. This racket not only exploited financial vulnerability but also instilled fear in the victims.
According to Deputy Commissioner of Police (East) Apoorva Gupta, the gang's activities spanned multiple cities, including Delhi, NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad. The police have seized crucial evidence, including phones and registers, to further investigate the extent of their operations.
The public response to these incidents has been one of concern and vigilance. Many are now cautious about meeting strangers through online platforms, urging others to prioritize safety over convenience.
As always, we urge our viewers to remain vigilant and exercise caution when using dating apps or any online platforms. Stay tuned to 'Padhega India' for more updates
