Delhi saw a 34% surge in economic offences in 2024, with 161 cases registered- up from 120 in the previous year. Builder frauds alone accounted for 80 cases, followed by property and NBFC scams. According to the police, lack of proper verification, misrepresentation of facts, and blind faith in lucrative promises were common threads in most cases.
In several instances, builders launched projects without approvals, duping multiple buyers by selling the same property or halting construction midway. NBFC frauds involved fake financial statements and documents to secure large loans. Ponzi and MLM schemes gained traction by offering unrealistic returns and collapsing once the initial funds dried up.
A disturbing trend also emerged around fake visa scams, where fraudsters posed as immigration agents, offering guaranteed jobs or student visas abroad in exchange for large sums. Victims were shown counterfeit documents, forged approvals, and fake embassy letters. They discovered too late that the offers were bogus, their hard-earned money gone. 
All these frauds can be averted when the interested parties verify authenticity of documents presented to them and credentials of such promoters/agents.
In today’s scenario, verification is no longer optional—it’s crucial.
