How ‘Bretish Airways’ trapped Delhi airport jobseekers
Delhi Police have dismantled a fake airline recruitment scam, targeting jobseekers at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport. The alleged mastermind and his associates used social media advertisements, fraudulent websites, and HR executives posing as women to deceive applicants. Victims were asked to pay between Rs7,000 and Rs10,000 for mandatory aviation courses before joining the non-existent Bretish Airways.
Six people, including the alleged mastermind, an associate, a website developer, and three tele-callers, have been arrested. Police suspect there may be more victims who have not come forward. The investigation focused on phone and internet records, UPI and bank transactions, website registration details, and complaints filed on the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal.
