When the CBI conducted searches, they discovered that Shaishav had 28 Bitcoin, 55 Ethereum, 25,572 Ripple, and 77 USDT in his e-wallet. These cryptocurrencies were seized and transferred to the government's wallet.
Shaishav convinced the victim that there were fraudulent activities happening on his Amazon account, and that even his social security number was being used to create fake accounts on the e-commerce platform. To make the victim believe him, Shaishav told the victim to withdraw money from his bank accounts and convert it into Bitcoin using a RockitCoin ATM Wallet. He even provided a QR code, falsely claiming it was linked to the US Treasury.
In order to gain the victim's trust, Shaishav sent a fake letter dated September 20, 2022, supposedly issued by the US' Federal Trade Commission.
As a result of this manipulation, the victim withdrew $130,000 from his bank accounts on various dates between August 30, 2022, and September 9, 2022. He then deposited this money into the Bitcoin address provided by Shaishav, who misappropriated the funds.
The CBI searches at Shaishav's residence in Ahmedabad led to the recovery of cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, USDT, etc.) worth approximately $939,000 from his digital wallets. CBI also found other incriminating evidence.
During the investigation, it was revealed that two individuals in Ahmedabad were involved as accomplices of Shaishav. The CBI also searched their premises and seized mobile phones, laptops with incriminating material, and other digital devices.
