Mysore/Mysuru: While COVID-19 has put brakes on many occupations and businesses, it has not stopped the business of cheating. An engineer, residing in city was duped to the tune of Rs. 30 lakh after being promised gold ornaments and coins worth crores of rupees at a cheaper price.
The conmen, posing as construction workers, claimed that they got the gold while working near a temple in Tamil Nadu and that they had to sell it off at a lesser price, as they were in dire need of money. A case has been registered at Saraswathipuram Police Station in this regard.
