Enforcement Directorate arrests 2 in Mumbai in 30,000cr cyber fraud
Big news: The Enforcement Directorate just nabbed two men in Mumbai in an alleged pan-India cyber fraud and digital arrests case involving transactions worth ₹30,000 crore.
A Goa woman was allegedly made to transfer ₹2.6 crore into fake accounts between May and June 2025, pretty wild stuff.
Officials say 27,000cr transfers 3,000cr cash
After their arrest, the duo was sent to Goa for more legal action. This case is part of a nationwide investigation that's hit 20 states and union territories so far.
Officials say the scam involved shady bank transfers worth ₹27,000 crore and cash dealings of another ₹3,000 crore, laundered through bank accounts, withdrawn in cash and then converted into foreign currency through RBI-licensed money changers.
There have been as many as 300 complaints and 150-160 FIRs filed, with recent raids uncovering cash stashes and shell companies using regular folks as dummy directors.
