The complainant had obtained loans using lending apps having Chinese roots. Then, cybercriminals working in India’s northern regions receive these applications.

“The accused called the complainant on WhatsApp and threatened to morph his pictures and make them viral if he failed to return the money when the complainant could not repay the loan within the allotted time.”

The complainant was repeatedly verbally abused by the offenders, which eventually forced him to call the police for assistance.

The Cyber Crime Cell’s assistant commissioner of police, Jeetendra Yadav, described how they could locate the couple in Noida by using a technological study of the culprits’ phone numbers.
