A couple and their associates have been accused of orchestrating a high-stakes investment scam, misleading more than 100 individuals and amassing Rs 1.58 crore. The prime suspects, Shubham Ambadas Patil and his wife Nita, along with Vilas Netaji Jhodge and Amar Bhagwan Pansok, allegedly lured investors through their firm, Dollar Pay.
The fraudulent operation initially gained traction by fulfilling initial returns, thereby earning the trust of investors. Their influence expanded across India, extending from Nagpur to major regions like Goa, Madhya Pradesh, and Delhi. Promises of plots and hefty rewards enticed investors to recruit others, further fueling the scheme.
As the scheme unraveled, returns ceased, and excuses piled up, leaving investors with substantial losses. A formal complaint led police to unveil the vastness of the deceit, with amounts ranging between Rs 25 crore to Rs 50 crore. Authorities are actively pursuing the primary suspects.
