After some fraudsters tried to dupe people of money claiming they were from popular Television show Kaun Banega Crorepati, The Jammu and Kashmir Police has issued an appeal to people not to fall in the trap.

The JK Crime Branch has noticed that some fraudsters in order to dupe innocent and gullible people upload fake news on YouTube showing a particular person winning huge prize through Kaun Banega Crorepati. The targeted person is then asked to collect the prize urgently by following the company rules and regulations, the spokesman said.
