COIMBATORE: A 33-year-old woman from Selvapuram was cheated of 15.74 lakh by online fraudsters.
K Dheena Sudha, 33, wife of Kannan from SA Garden at Muthusamy Colony in Selvapuram lodged a cybercrime complaint on Saturday. She said she received a message on the Telegram app on August 7 from a stranger who asked her to complete 30 tasks per day, for which she was promised money.
