Hi, this is Chandralekha and I love talking about money 

Loss to one lesson to many, we should be always aware of what is happening recently.

🟩The real case
👉A 71 year old doctor from Hyderabad lost over ₹20 lakh
👉A deepfake video of Sitharaman was used to promote a trading platform

🟩How the scam started
👉 AI generated celebrity endorsement
👉 Promised high but legitimate looking returns
👉 Click led to WhatsApp contact from a foreign number
👉 Claimed to be platform representatives

🟩How the trap worked
👉Aadhaar, PAN, bank details taken for verification
👉Small first investment built trust
👉Fake dashboard showed profits in dollars
👉Victim kept investing, and Total amount crossed ₹20 lakh

🟩 The final trick
👉 Huge profits shown on screen
👉 Money marked as blocked
👉 Extra fees demanded to withdraw
👉 That’s when the scam was discovered

🚩Common red flags to check
👉 Big personalities promoting investments
👉 Personal data asked on random platforms
👉 Unrealistic return promises
👉 Early fake profits
👉 Fees demanded to access your own money

🟩Always check before you click
👉 Verify on official social media handles
