Six Arrested For Credit Card Fraud; Valuable Items Seized By Noida Police

The Sector 39 Police in Noida have arrested six individuals for committing credit card fraud by illegally increasing credit card limits. The police recovered several valuable items, including a laptop, 28 mobile phones from different companies, 12 silver coins, 4 gold coins, an i10 car, and a Jupiter scooter.

Details of the Arrests

The arrested suspects were identified as:

  1. Amit Kumar, 27, a resident of Sector 45, Noida, originally from Bhagalpur, Bihar

Modus Operandi of the Fraudsters
