Telangana CID Busts Massive Online Betting and Mule Account Network Linked to Gujarat

Telangana CID has uncovered a large-scale interstate cyber fraud and online betting network operating across India. Following a six-month investigation, authorities arrested 11 individuals from Gujarat, Delhi, and Punjab, including two alleged masterminds from Gujarat who reportedly earned ₹8–10 lakh daily through illegal betting operations and money laundering activities.

The gang used 46 mule bank accounts, multiple UPI IDs, fake SIM cards, and shell companies to move betting funds through an eight-layer laundering network. Investigators seized luxury vehicles, laptops, smartphones, passports, and cash during coordinated raids.

According to authorities, the network is linked to over 225 cybercrime complaints and 73 criminal cases across multiple Indian states. The operation highlights the growing threat of organized cyber-enabled financial fraud, online gambling, and mule account networks in India.
