Three arrested along with two women tele-callers.

They were running a fake call centre for installing mobile phone towers.

Approx Rs.80 Lacs cheated by the racketeers.

A team of officers of Crime Branch led by Inspr. Jitender Kundu and consisting of ASI Rishi, HC Ghanshyam, HC Sanjay Singh, HC Abrar and Ct. Virender under the supervision of Addl. DCP Joy Tirkey have busted a fake mobile phone tower installation racket. Three persons including two women tele-callers have been arrested for being involved in the scam. 4 bank accounts on fictitious names have been unearthed that were used by the scamsters. Laptop and mobile phones have also been recovered. They have cheated innocent people to the tune of Rs. 80 Lacs.

Crime Branch received a written complaint from a resident of Sec. 9, Rohini, Delhi that he had been cheated by fake mobile phone tower installation racketeers. He stated that he had read an advertisement in a leading Hindi Daily Newspaper of Delhi about installation of mobile phone towers. He called on a mobile phone number provided in the advertisement. A lady picked up the phone. She informed him that he needed to first pay the Registration Amount of Rs. 3299/- for them to proceed any further. After he had paid the Registration Amount, two persons visited the proposed site at Nangloi and assured the complainant that amobile phone tower would be installed at his place on priority. He further paid Rs. 85,000/-. However, after making the payment all efforts to reach the advertised mobile phone proved futile and it was found switched off. A case under the appropriate sections of the law was registered.

During investigation on 16/01/2012three persons were arrested from their rented office at Triveni Complex, JawaharPark, Laxmi Nagar, Delhi for being involved in the scam. They were identified as Ravi Kumar Kejriwal (aged 29 years) s/o Sanwar Mal r/o Chander Vihar, Mandawli Delhi – originally resident of Rattanji Road, Purana Bazar, Dhanbad Jhar Khand and two lady associates, one resident of Sakar Pur, Delhi and another resident of Nand Nagri, Delhi.

He had employed the two girls to attend calls on the mobile phone numbers advertised by the racketeers in various leading Hindi newspapers of Delhi. The racketeers had been running the racket since January 2010.

The racketeers gave advertisements in leading Hindi news papers that Mobile towers are to be installed on property or land and the interested party could contact on the provided numbers. Ravi Kumar Kejriwal arranged for mobile SIMs on fake IDs and for bank accounts in fictitious names and addresses. The caller had to first pay the Registration Amount which was Rs. 3299/-. When the registration amount was deposited then after a week a letter was issued for confirmation of date of physical inspection of the proposed site. Ravi Kumar Kejriwal would himself visit the site using a different name and convince the victim that the site was ideal for tower installation. Ravi Kumar Kejriwal even took some photocopies of the land or property documents and charged anywhere between Rs 10,000 to Rs. 20,000 for the physical inspection. To finish installation on priority Ravi Kumar Kejriwal suggested that the victim pay more money. A process fee of Rs. 18,000 to Rs. 25,000 or more was also charged from the victims. After all this was paid the mobile phone number was discarded after a month of usage. The racketeers have cheated large number of victims from Delhi, Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh.

Three bank accounts of State Bank of India and one of Punjab National Bank were used by the racketeers in this racket. Approximate total transaction of Rs. 80 Lacs has taken place in all these four accounts since January, 2010. The details of the Bank A/c and transactions of money are as given below:-
