Bhubaneswar: Always be alert. You should never trust anyone blindly. Verify facts before giving your money. These are just a few lessons an IT engineer from Odisha learnt the hard way, only after becoming poorer by Rs 24 lakh!

The man, from Jatani area of Khurda was looking for a bride on an Odia matrimonial site. Sure enough, he found the love of his life, Priya Gupta, who reportedly misrepresented herself as an Odia girl from Balasore pursuing a medical course in California.

She pretended that she was caught at Delhi airport as she was carrying 70000 British Pounds. So, this woman, tricked the Odia youth into paying her Rs 24 lakh in several instalments so that she could get the UK currency released.

It was only a matter of time before the besotted lover came to know he had been duped and he lodged a complaint with the cyber police in Bhubaneswar.
