Indian Police have arrested an MBBS student for allegedly transferring ₹8 lakhs (approximately $9,378) to a gang of Chinese youths. The accused, Vikram Vishnoi, a third-year student at Government Medical College in Alibag, Maharashtra, reportedly converted fraudulently obtained funds into cryptocurrency and sent it to the gang using the crypto exchange Binance.
The arrest was made based on clues found during the investigation into a case involving a city-based software engineer who was defrauded of ₹1.35 lakh (approximately $1,582) through a tactic described as a “digital arrest.” Authorities revealed that Vishnoi facilitated cyber fraud transactions by providing Indian bank accounts to the Chinese gang in exchange for commissions.
As per reports, Vishnoi’s operations involved connecting with five Chinese nationals via Telegram, where he used a chatbot with a translation tool to communicate in English and Chinese. After receiving the fraud proceeds in Indian bank accounts, he would convert the money into cryptocurrency and transfer it to the crypto wallet of a Chinese individual using the alias “TLX” via a QR code.
The police have reached out to Telegram and Binance to gather additional information on these transactions as part of their ongoing investigation.
