International gambling rings are actively targeting Bangladeshi users via platforms like Facebook and Telegram, according to cybercrime officials. These syndicates create fake betting groups, promising high returns through cricket and football matches. Victims are tricked into depositing money via mobile banking apps or cryptocurrency. The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has issued warnings and blocked multiple scam groups. Citizens are urged to report suspicious betting pages and avoid sharing personal details online. Officials say more arrests are expected in coming weeks.
