Posing as an employee of a private company conman walked into a private bank on Nrupathunga road and submitted required documents and availed personal loan worth Rs.13. 9 lakh in November 2019.
However in August this year,the bank officials realized the documents submitted by him are fake and filed a complaint with the central cyber crime police seeking help to trace him so that they could recover the dues from him.
Based on the complaint filed by Dattu MB,staff of the HDFC bank,Nrupathunga branch,the police have taken up a case of impersonation through a communication device and cheating under IT Act on Tuesday.
The initial probe revealed that the accused had submitted relevant documents belonging to some other person to avail the personal loan and credit card facilities .
The bank failed to perform the necessary verification and due diligence before sanctioning the loan amount and did not realize about the fake documents unless he defaulted repayment of the dues,a police officer, said.
