Indian police busts LTTE-linked credit card scam

Indian police have cracked a Bangalore-Malaysia linked syndicate that used cloned credit cards to dupe shopping outlets and steal goods worth Malaysian Ringgit 1.3 million in India’s IT capital.

Bangalore police are now tracking a Malaysian, alleged mastermind of the group, also suspected to be linked to members of the defeated Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LLTE).

“He hacked bank accounts across the globe, including India, through the Internet and collected their unique identity details.”
