A city doctor fell prey to an online lottery fraud and lost Rs 30,157 to seven foreign conmen. The conmen had lured Dr Vadiraja B N by sending a mail stating he had won $5 lakh in lottery.
The accused are Ayodam, Dr Tony Cheung, Clement Wang, Ella Doris, Dr Young Chu, Tschipanda Mande and Mashun Khamrag. On April 17, 2007, Dr Vadiraja was informed about the prize money by a mail from Ayodam, who claimed to be the vice-president of International Promotions, Japan Jumbo Draw, Hong Kong.
Later, the doctor was told that the lottery money had been transferred to commerce bank of Philippines for onward transfer to his account in Bangalore. He was asked to remit $750 to the bank account of Tschipanda.
The doctor followed their instructions promptly. He grew suspicious when he was again asked to remit $1,650. After enquiry, he realised the lottery was fake.
