Hyderabad: A retired pensioner from Hyderabad fell victim to a cyber fraud and lost ₹10 lakh after contacting a fake Punjab National Bank number he found on Google. The incident took place on November 4, 2025, when fraudsters posing as bank representatives lured the victim into installing a malicious APK file on his phone for supposed “account verification.”
