Mumbai: The police have launched a probe after a scammer created a profile on a matrimonial website to target a 36- year-old event organiser from Nagpur.
The scammer later made a video call to the victim and morphed the footage obscenely to extort him by threatening to make the recording viral. The ordeal began on January 2, when the complainant was contacted on WhatsApp by a woman purportedly from Hyderabad.
They initially connected through a matrimonial website. Casual messages escalated into a nightmare on March 8 when during a 27-second call, the fraudster captured the complainant’s photograph and recorded the video. Within 15 minutes, the victim received a morphed, obscene video.
