Lucknow police have arrested Vinod Gopal Rathore, a resident of Roopgarh village, in connection with an alleged fake IPO and gaming scam in Madhya Pradesh's Petlawad. The suspect, who owns Pixlr Company, has been charged by Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force (STF) investigators as an associate of a nationwide fake IPO and stock market cyber fraud syndicate.
The syndicate allegedly orchestrated the fraud, involving Rs 2,934 crore, under the leadership of Anurag Srivastava. During interrogation, authorities found that Rathore was involved in launching a gaming company in 2022 in association with Srivastava and other gang members. This company allegedly facilitated suspicious transactions and concealed proceeds from cyber fraud.
