The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has intensified its efforts to combat cyber-enabled financial crimes across the country as part of Operation Chakra-V, a major crackdown targeting organized investment fraud. In a coordinated operation, the agency conducted extensive searches at 10 different locations spanning Delhi, Hisar, Lucknow, Mumbai, Pune, and Nashik. The searches were carried out in connection with a complex case involving organized cyber fraud schemes that duped investors through various online platforms.
Sources indicate that the investigation is focused on apprehending individuals involved in large-scale illegal activities related to fake investment schemes, which have reportedly misled numerous unsuspecting victims. The operation is part of the CBI’s broader initiative to dismantle cybercrime networks that manipulate digital platforms for financial gains and threaten the safety and security of the public’s financial assets.
During the raids, the agency teams reportedly seized electronic devices, documents, and other digital evidence that could provide crucial insights into the fraudulent operations. The case is currently in the investigative stage, and authorities are working to identify and apprehend the masterminds behind the organized crime network.
The CBI’s operation underscores its commitment to strengthening cybersecurity measures and protecting the public from sophisticated financial scams prevalent in the digital age. Further updates are awaited as investigations continue.
