How Castler Escrow Could Have Prevented the Pune ATM Clone Fraud

In a recent case, a customer of Bharati Sahakari Bank in Pune lost Rs 1.08 crores in an ATM clone fraud. The victim was withdrawing money from an ATM when their card was skimmed by a fraudster. The fraudster then used the cloned card to withdraw money from the victim’s account in multiple transactions.

This scam could have been prevented if the victim had used Castler Escrow. Castler Escrow is a platform that holds payments in escrow until both parties in a transaction are satisfied. In this case, the victim would have deposited the money into the escrow account managed by Castler. The funds would then only have been released to the fraudster once the victim had confirmed that the money had been withdrawn from their account.

As a result, the victim would have been protected from financial loss. Even if the fraudster had been able to withdraw money from the victim’s account, the funds would not have been released to them until the victim had confirmed that the withdrawal had taken place.

This is just one example of how Castler Escrow can help to prevent fraud. If you are considering making an online payment, we encourage you to use Castler Escrow to protect yourself from financial loss.

Here are some additional thoughts on how Castler Escrow could have prevented the ATM clone fraud in Pune:

• Castler Escrow would have required the fraudster to provide additional information before releasing the funds, such as the victim’s address or phone number. This would have made it more difficult for the fraudster to withdraw the money without the victim’s knowledge.
• Castler Escrow would have given the victim more time to review the transaction and confirm that the money had been withdrawn from their account. This would have given the victim a chance to report the fraud if they did not recognize the withdrawal.
• Castler Escrow would have provided the victim with a record of the transaction, which they could have used to file a police report. This would have made it easier for the police to investigate the fraud and recover the victim’s money.
