With the increase usage of internet and online transactions apps, the cases of cyber crimes have also increased to multi-folded.
There have been instances of cybercrime where individuals are lured into disclosing sensitive information related to their bank details, such as ATM PINs, by clicking on fraudulent links or being asked to update their KYC (Know Your Customer) details. While some people manage to identify these scams in time, unfortunately, many others fall victim to such fraudulent activities.
In recent times, a new method of online deception has emerged, and one name that has frequently appeared in connection with such cases is “Aniket Vijay Kalbhor.“
It is crucial to stay vigilant and exercise caution when sharing personal and financial information online. Be wary of suspicious links or requests for sensitive details and ensure you verify the authenticity of any requests before taking any action. Taking steps to protect your online privacy and practicing safe browsing habits can help mitigate the risks associated with cybercrime.
How does Aniket Vijay Kalbhor cheat?
Aniket Vijay Kalbhor is part of a group of cyber fraudsters engaged in similar types of scams. One of their tactics involves creating fake ID cards impersonating military personnel, which they then use to deceive unsuspecting individuals. For instance, they might target people who have posted advertisements on online platforms like magicbricks.com or 99acres.com, specifically those seeking tenants for their properties.
These fraudsters carefully examine the advertisements and make contact with the individuals seeking tenants, posing as interested parties. They exploit the trust and credibility associated with military personnel to gain the confidence of their targets.
It’s important to be cautious and exercise due diligence when engaging with potential tenants or responding to inquiries about your property. Verify the identities of individuals who express interest and consider adopting additional security measures, such as meeting in person or conducting background checks, to minimize the risk of falling victim to such fraudulent schemes.
This gang tries to convince the property owner to give him the property on rent and he needs that on urgent basis. He is ready to do the advance payment and for this he asks for the GooglePay or Paytm like aps. From here the actual game begins!!
The fraud tells the innocent owner to first pay him the first. On asking why as the tenant should make the payment, to this he would reply that he is working in army and this is the way it works.
He would tell you that the army does the transaction through merchant account. And in merchant account first the owner would have to make the payment and then he would get back the double amount.
Lets understand it like this: He would ask you to make a transaction of Rs 1 initially, and when you would make, he would return Rs 2 to your account. You would get a faith that yes he is saying right. So, next time you would do the payment of the advance lets say Rs. 20,000 but you would not get anything in return. He would make some excuses like server is down etc. You would again make payment something.
He would again and again ask you to maintain some amount in your account and add some beneficiaries to your account. You would be asked to do the IMPS money transfer to these accounts. Some of the names he would take of BK Singh, Randeep etc.
What to do after Cyber crime?
- Please be aware of this new trick and immediately report to the cyber cell nearby
- You can also report this to the cyber cell website online https://cybercrime.gov.in/
- Report your bank about the fraud as soon as possible, and try to block all your bank cards and online banking
- Awareness is better than any kind of ignorance
- Next time he may use some other name and share army or some other documents, but please don’t fall prey to this gang now

Hi Guys,
I was working In a IT Company in Tamil Nadu.
My salary was not enough to run the family and my husband is also facing a difficult time in his job. So I decided to do Part time job WFH and applied random jobs in Online.
I got a Message from 8625098764, for WFH Data Entry. My First question was “is I need to pay any fee for this Job since most of the Data entry Job ask for Registration fee” She said “No”.
She asked me to share ID Proof for Login Creation. So I shared my aadhaar ID proof to her. After Login ID created, She called me and said “your login is created – the project is of 12 days and you need to complete 1200 forms with 85% accuracy,and you get paid sum of Rs 16000 to Rs 19000 rs (16rs per Form) if you fail to reach 85% of accuracy. You need to pay 3299 as fine amount. Due to my financial condition I didn’t asked much question to her and Blankly said yes to her in call.
Day One started I was okay with work she given, later days I found fishy and the data are not relevant and it seems to be fake. So I didn’t completed my work intentionally. My Submission date was 26th Oct 2022.
On that day I was bit worried already since I was not completed my work and also not willing to do the work because its unrelevant data. I confront to my husband about it for the first time, he consoled me that If someone calls you genuinely for i can ask for excuses and time to do the work.
So I didn’t get any call during the 12 days and I was expecting the call on submission date 26th Oct but I didn’t get any. On 28th Oct afternoon I got message that A Case has been filed on your name “As you have denied to close the case by paying the Admin and charges according to the contract which was signed by you. We have to proceed legally and your case will be filed in district court. You will be charged under sec 73,74 and 75 as per the Indian contract act.As per an Indian Penal code section 420 shall be imposed on you if you abscond from the situation. INDIAN contract ACT 1872 for contract breach against you as under law that mentions on THE AGREEMENT.”
Case number –
UEL05/2022/852
Advocate Name – *AKSHAY PATIL *.
Filing Number -2022/920
I was shocked and worried for a moment, I got a whatsapp call from someone new, he said, he is the legal advisor and asking to pay Rs 3299 in 10 mins or else you will be arrested for your behavior, after listening to him, very humbly I asked Can you please provide me your Company name and address so that I can reach your office and pay my fine directly. He just shouted at me and hanged the call saying you will be arrested in few minutes Police will arrive anytime to your address( Since he have my Aadhaar). I was about to cry and I immediately reached my husband and said everything Since my Husband in to Banking Loan he have lot of advocates contact so we directly reached High Court and found that the Case number UEL05 itself fake. So I consoled my self and ignored the messages. On Sunday 30th Oct 2020 I got a another message from new number 75173 40481, noting himself as CBI officer and asking for 50000 rs as court fine amount immediately and also shared the same ID proof of Ankit Vijay Kalbhor.
I was wondering is real CBI use to message on Whatsapp or Is any CBI shares his ID proof to proof himself in whatsapp. but am worried again. My husband was pretty much sure that its 200% fake. But thought of googling his name and fortunately I reached this Site and stay strong to face these fake crooked people at any circumstances.
Be aware, If someone calls for WFH data entry please ask for Company name and Address. Be Safe and Secure.
