Kirti Kulhari Credit Card Fraud details
The incident occurred on the night of July 24 when the 43-year-old actor, who stays on Yari Road, Versova, was travelling to a multiplex in Andheri West. Cyber criminals allegedly used her details to make the fraudulent transactions, ABP News reported.
The fraud unravelled quickly. Kulhari received a bank alert during her journey detailing a $2,525 transaction to Aeromexico Airlines.
She immediately contacted her bank's customer care. Bank officials checked her account details and found that four separate unauthorised transactions had been processed.
