More than 10 lakh accounts in India

Sp Rahul Kumar Lodha revealed that the fraud of MTFE is going on at the international level. The scale at which it is going on can be gauged from the fact that MTFE even showed its advertisement on the board during the Sri Lanka Cricket League 2023 to convince the people. SP Lodha said that people associated with MTFE gradually started doing this fraud by luring people. There are more than 10 lakh 68 thousand accounts in India itself.

How to understand how fraud is happening

The common man invests in MTFE in the greed of growing money. This money goes directly to the TR-20 network of the dark web. This network operates internationally and no government of any country has any control over it. No one can withdraw money from here, not even MTFE itself. However, this network is transparent and money is visible on the screen. Anyone investing can see the money growing in dollars here at any time, but cannot withdraw.

The invested person is fooled by showing his money growing in the network and this is where the fraud starts. MTFE uses the money lying in the network and within a few seconds this money is put in the wallet of the fake company. This whole process is black. The fake company invests this money in cryptocurrency, that is, completely in white. This is how black money is whitened in MTFE.

Black money was whitened

The investments made in cryptocurrency were transferred to MTFE's bank accounts in India by the fake company Clean Chem Private Limited in Indian rupees. The work of withdrawing money from black to white was going on like this.

Co-ordinating with many countries

Ratlam SP Rahul Kumar Lodha said that these networks are working at the international level. No rules or control policies of any country are applicable to them yet. There is no KYC in the dark web, so no one knows about the person investing money. The Sri Lankan Embassy has been contacted for the link and action traced by the Ratlam police. Along with this, Malaysia and Bangladesh are also being contacted. It was told that a similar fraud is being done there too.

Fraud accused arrested

Sp Lodha said that Govind Singh and Sandeep have been arrested along with Huzaifa Jamali of Ratlam district. Govind and Sandeep were not only campaigning, but they were aware that a video of the business company was being faked. Despite this, they were getting people to invest for the company by taking money in their QR code and cash. Apart from these three, Yoga Nanda, who helped in withdrawing money from black to white by forming a fake company named Kalin in Bangalore, has also been arrested. Yoga Nanda is the owner of Kalin.
