Cyber Police have called dozens of persons for questioning. An official confirmed to the news agency Kashmir News Trust that Kashmir-based employees and some online ‘influencers’ who promoted this sham company in Kashmir have been questioned so far.
Reports said that the sham company availed the services of some online ‘influencers’ (two from Kashmir and one from Jammu) to promote their company and their fraud schemes before its registration.
Reports further added that the sham company was run by outsiders who mostly belong to Southern Tamil state. Police are trying to find whether the company operators were alone in looting the general public or they did it in connivance with some locals.
The company exhorted the common public to register on its website and become partners in surveys it was undertaking. The registered individuals were promised payment for undertaking those surveys.
The sham company has siphoned off several crores of rupees from investors. [KNT]
