Bhubaneswar: A man’s joy of winning Rs 90 lakh on Dream11 fantasy sports platform was short-lived as he reportedly lost the prize money by sharing an OTP with a fraudster.
As per reports, Debiprasad Biswal of Kaithagadia village under Hatadihi block of Odisha’s Keonjhar district had formed a fantasy team on Dream11 for a T20I cricket match between India and Zimbabwe.
As he won Rs 90 lakh by securing the top spot among the participants of the contest, he received a call on WhatsApp. The caller asked Biswal to share an OTP to get the prize amount, to which he agreed.
As soon as he shared the OTP with the caller, his Dream11 ID was hacked while another person’s ID went to the top position of the contest.
On contacting the caller, Biswal was told to transfer Rs 1950 for restoration of the ID. Though he deposited the amount, his ID remained hacked while he couldn’t contact the caller again despite repeated calls.
