GACL had hired a firm for transportation of the raw materials and both the companies interacted about their deals through emails. The hackers intercepted the emails between GACL and the transport firm. The hackers changed the invoice number and bank account number in one of the emails and sent it to GACL.

The money that GACL had to pay to the transport firm was sent to a German bank and siphoned.GACL was duped of Rs. 1.94 crore and it approached the police.

The cyber-crime team tracked the email which led them to the German bank. The GACL and Police approached legal authorities in Germany.

While the German bank recently transferred 1.94 crores to GACL’s bank account after a joint operation, the police are trying to track down the accused who intercepted the emails and siphoned the money.
