The fraudsters contacted victims through Instagram/Facebook for business. In this case, resident Kamlesh Kumar filed a complaint. In the complaint, he stated that he met a woman named Sara Anna on Facebook, who claimed to be a pharmacist dealing in cancer medicines. She mentioned importing raw material from Russia for 5800 pounds per 500 grams, while the same material is available in India for Rs. 2300 per 500 grams. A person named Ajay Enterprises Pvt., located at National Highway 222, Dirang, Arunachal Pradesh, was introduced as the manufacturer of this material, and a deal was supposedly made for Rs 2300 per 500 grams.

Sara Anna convinced the complainant to collaborate with her, promising profits in the ratio of 60 percent and 40 percent. The deal involved communication with Ajay Enterprises.
