In a debit card fraud, a Malaysian student studying at Kasturba Medical College here has lost Rs 1.18 lakh with the money withdrawn from ATMs abroad apparently using a cloned card, police said.
In his police complaint, the student said he was shocked to receive a message on his mobile phone that Rs 1.18 lakh had been withdrawn from his account this week.
Police said preliminary investigation showed that the amount had been removed from ATMs abroad. They suspected that the debit card must have been cloned.
