Engineer duped of 12 Lakhs in cryptocurrency scam through telegram channel

New Delhi [India]: In a distressing incident, Ankit Chaudhary, an engineer associated with a renowned company, fell victim to a cryptocurrency scam, losing approximately Rs 12 lakh.

Subsequently, I invested 15 thousand, and similarly, I received 20 thousand. Due to this, I became greedy and invested about Rs 12 lakh in different transactions, but I did not get my money back” he said.
