Beed witnessed a cyber fraud case where an unidentified individual duped Majalgaon Sub-Divisional Officer Gaurav Sahebrao Ingole of ₹30,000.

Ingole, believing the caller, transferred ₹30,000 in two instalments through a QR code sent by the accused.
Upon realizing the fraud, Ingole contacted his superiors. The Majalgaon Rural police registered a case against the accused under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), with Police Sub-Inspector Ravindra Ambhore leading the investigation. The police are now examining the accused's mobile number, QR code, and financial transactions to uncover the perpetrator.
