Hyderabad | Cyber criminals cheated an accountant of a private company by impersonating as the firm's owner, who is the grand daughter of a former DGP, police said on Saturday.
The cyber criminals sent a message earlier this month to the accountant on an instant messaging app with her photo, instructing him to transfer Rs 1.20 crore to an account.
The accountant, who fell for the trap, transferred the amount.
The fraud came to light when the cyber criminals again sent a message seeking money transfer to the accountant with the same modus operandi.
The victim lodged a complaint about a week ago and an investigation was underway, police added.
