Debashish Bayen, a finance analyst in Bengaluru, lost Rs 3.38 lakh in an online fraud while attempting to buy liquor from a Kottanur store. The fraudster, posing as the store, tricked Bayen into sharing credit card details, resulting in two transactions and a loss of Rs 3,38,063. Bayen promptly blocked his card and filed a complaint through a cyber portal, highlighting the urgency of his response to the scam.
