Coimbatore: An 85-year-old girl lodged a complaint with town police commissioner on Friday alleging that unidentified people had swindled about Rs four.nine lakh from her checking account using an ATM card which she never owned.
“My mother doesn’t have an ATM card for her checking account, however the amount used to be withdrawn using an ATM card,” said S Abdul Hakim, victim’s son, alleging the involvement of financial institution officers within the fraudulent.
The girl, S Usain Bibi, a resident of Kunniyamuthur, has been gathering pension after the demise of her husband Syed, who used to be a sanitary manager with the civic frame, in 1978. She maintains a saving account with a nationalized financial institution.
Hakim said his mother would withdraw a couple of 1000's of rupees from the financial institution after submitting a withdrawal slip on the counter each 3 to four months. When the victim approached the financial institution throughout early June, the financial institution authorities had told her that the account wouldn't have any steadiness.
The preliminary inquiry with the financial institution has revealed that the financial institution has issued an ATM card for this account a couple of weeks in the past and the entire amount used to be withdrawn inside of a couple of days after the cardboard used to be issued, he said.
Around Rs 50,000 according to day used to be withdrawn from her account using the ATM card at various centres between May 25 and June four. An amount of Rs 50,000 used to be withdrawn on the counter, he said reciting the financial institution transaction details.
The financial institution officers had given acclaim for the ATM card after the accused has submitted a photocopy of Usain Bibi’s Aadhar card. Hakim questioned as how the financial institution officers authorized the request of an unknown particular person with out intimating the account holder.
Usually, the bank cards would be sent through courier to the residential address, but on this case, the officers had passed it over to the accused in hand, he said. “We were not even intimated about the disbursement of the cardboard,” he added.
The complaint used to be forwarded to the cyber cell of town police who're additional investigating the case.
