Police in Madhya Pradesh have arrested six individuals in connection with a large-scale matrimonial fraud racket that allegedly swindled victims out of Rs 11 crore. According to official statements, the operation functioned by creating deceptive profiles on matrimonial platforms to lure unsuspecting individuals into financial transactions under the guise of marriage prospects.

Investigators have indicated that the criminal network extended beyond local borders. The gang reportedly utilized callers based in foreign countries to interact with victims, adding a layer of complexity to the scam. By posing as potential partners, these callers built trust with victims before convincing them to transfer significant sums of money. The police are currently investigating the extent of these international links and whether additional suspects remain at large. The arrests mark a significant development in the crackdown on digital matrimonial fraud, which has become an increasing concern for law enforcement agencies monitoring online safety and financial crimes.
