New Delhi | April 11, 2026
The Delhi cyber fraud mule account racket came under crackdown as the Delhi Police arrested 14 accused involved in online scams across Delhi-NCR. Police seized ₹79,000 in cash along with mobile phones, ATM cards, passbooks, and laptops during the operation.
How the Delhi Cyber Fraud Mule Account Racket Worked
The Delhi cyber fraud mule account racket operated by supplying bank accounts, SIM cards, and ATM cards to cybercriminals. As a result, scammers used these tools to run fake investment schemes, job frauds, and digital payment scams.
Moreover, the accused earned commissions for every transaction they enabled through these illegal channels.
Gaming App Used to Hide Fraud Money
Interestingly, the Delhi cyber fraud mule account racket used a gaming-based application to move money and avoid detection. In addition, the gang ran a betting-linked call centre from Laxmi Nagar.
Because of this setup, the accused managed to hide the origin of the fraud money effectively.
Investigation Through NCRP and Surveillance
Initially, police identified suspicious mule accounts through complaints registered on the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal. Then, officers tracked financial transactions and used technical surveillance to uncover the network.
Consequently, investigators linked at least 15 complaints to this racket.
Raids Conducted Across Delhi-NCR
After gathering strong evidence, Delhi Police conducted raids in Delhi, Noida, Faridabad, and Ghaziabad. During these operations, officers arrested the accused and uncovered the full extent of the Delhi cyber fraud mule account racket.
Legal Action and Ongoing Investigation
Police registered FIR No. 47/2026 under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Currently, authorities are investigating further to identify other members and handlers connected to the racket.
