A 22‑year‑old freelance website designer was arrested in Gurgaon for creating counterfeit ticket‑sale sites that mimicked an online food‑delivery app’s platform and duped fans into buying fake tickets for singer Diljit Dosanjh’s “Dil‑Luminati India Tour” concert. The fraud, uncovered after the food‑delivery company reported misuse of its brand in September 2024, involved two other Delhi residents, Nitin and Vishnu, who set up multiple fake domains, Instagram pages and email IDs to lure buyers, collect payments and generate bogus booking confirmations. A third suspect, Priyanshu Kushwah, was also arrested for designing one of the cloned websites in exchange for Rs 5,000. Police have charged the suspects under sections 66(C) and 66(D) of the IT Act, are tracing the money trail, and are working to identify additional victims of the scheme.
