ATM bank fraud in Silchar


A total of 24,500 Rs has been fraudulently withdrawn from the account of an aged lady who is a resident of Nazirpatty, Silchar.This incident took place in the Silchar bazar branch of the State Bank of India.

The victim named Sabita Endow filed a report in Silchar police station on Sunday. Ms. Endow informed police that she withdrew Rs 7,000 on 30th August. She couldn’t find her card when she wanted to withdraw more money on 12th of September. The enquiry in the bank accout revealed that her ATM card was used a few times to withdraw a sum of 24,500 leaving only Rs 82 in her account.

The police commenced an investigation in this matter. It is being guessed that either somebody very close to Ms Sabita Endow committed the theft or somebody who was there in the counter on 30th of August found out her PIN by deceit and later stole the card. This is only a conjecture and the police is hoping to capture the thief soon. source: observer247
