Economic Offences Wing comes out with documentary on fraudulent finance firms

MADURAI: The Economic Offences Wing has come out with a documentary film that would create awareness among people on the fraudulent and fly-by-night finance firms and how they should be wary about them.

The film also focuses on online business fraud and how some finance and business firms cheated the public through websites. The documentary says that most of the victims of finance firms were retired people who invested their retirement benefits in such companies.

The middle class and poor people also get cheated by such firms, according to their survey.

In most of the cases, the life of the investors crumbled.

The EOW organised the awareness campaign in all the district head quarters in the state.

The EOW officials asked people not to be lured by the attractive interest income promised by the finance firms and inform them about such firms. They also advised the people not to share any of their bank or any other details with strangers.
