Sambalpur: Cyber frauds duped a man of Rs 3 lakh on the plea of updating his Know Your Customer (KYC) information in Odisha’s Sambalpur city.
According a complaint filed by the victim, Shiv Kumar Verma, at Sambalpur Cyber Police Station, he had received a message on his mobile phone on July 14 stating that his account in State Bank of India (SBI) will be blocked, if he would not update his KYC information.
