A 22-year-old former employee of a courier company allegedly duped the owner of Rs 20,000 by transferring the amount from her bank account to his mobile wallet in south-west Delhi's Dwarka area.
Aarti Sharma filed a complaint on December 31 alleging that someone has fraudulently extracted Rs 20,000 from her ICICI bank account, said DCP(Southwest) Surender Kumar.
It was found through the details of Paytm account that Rs 6000 had been transferred to a man's account. That man was questioned and he led police to his brother Shubham Mudgal (22), who was arrested.
Shubham had worked under Aarti at her courier company and therefore he had details about her account number.
He had procured a number through fake documents and was operating Paytm on that number.
"He transferred Rs 20,000 from Aarti's account to his Paytm account and then transferred Rs 6000 to his brother's account.
"He purchased various items like pairs of jeans, shirts, pair of shoes from the money," said the officer.
