Before getting banned in India, PUBG Mobile was a massively popular game in the country. The title gained its popularity mainly because of two aspects – a) the fun Battle Royale gameplay concept and b) the social-interaction with other gamers on the battlefield. Now, it was surely fun to play PUBG Mobile and interact with friends during the lockdown. However, the social interaction feature of the game was a disaster for some people as two individuals, who met through PUBG Mobile, conned them for money.
So, what started off as game-buddies in PUBG Mobile gradually turned into a conning business for the duo. Shubham offered a 20% commission to Tusar for anything they earn and Tusar helped him in the process.
The police investigated the case and discovered that the money the conning-duo earn goes to a Paytm wallet first. From there, they convert the total amount into Croma gift vouchers.
