The Mumbai Cyber Police have initiated a probe into a suspicious mule bank account linked to an interstate cyber fraud network. The fraudulent scheme, which siphoned off lakhs of rupees from victims across multiple Indian states, operated through an organised network that targeted innocent citizens with investment opportunities, part-time job offers, and digital arrest threats.
The investigation led to the identification of a mule account belonging to Kalyan Kishanrao Khardemoje, a resident of Malegaon in Nanded district. The account, used solely to receive stolen funds and rapidly route them through secondary channels or cash withdrawals, registered a surge in illicit transactions between November 2025 and March 2026.
A formal case has been registered against the account holder and unidentified operators, and authorities are conducting raids to apprehend local handlers and trace the ultimate beneficiaries of the laundered money.
