In: BPO employee arrested for online card fraud

Posted on May 4, 2011 by Dissent

A BPO employee at Visakhapatnam was today arrested for online credit card fraud running into lakhs of rupees.

The arrested, 25-year P Bala Vamsi Krishna, is a customer service representative in the BPO and a resident of Satyam Heights at SR Nagar.

He was arrested following a complaint by R Sreekanth, the general manger of Red Bus.in, an online bus ticketing agency.

Vamsi Krishna did more than 143 transactions during the past three to four months using credit card data he had obtained from his friends working in a super market and a mobile phone outlet at Kothapet on the pretext of doing some research on, ironically, credit card frauds.
