A 41-year-old immigration officer posted at the Malaysian consulate in Mumbai was duped of nearly ₹79 lakh in a cryptocurrency scam after being added to a WhatsApp trading group. The group promised high returns through crypto and stock investments, initially providing small profits to gain his trust. Encouraged by the returns, he invested larger sums over several months. When he attempted to withdraw the funds, scammers demanded an additional fee and then cut contact. A cybercrime case has been registered.
