A major fraud case has been registered against 15 individuals, including Bollywood actor Shreyas Talpade, for allegedly duping people out of crores under the guise of a chit-fund scheme.
According to reports, the accused were running a company named 'The Loni Urban Multistate Credit and Thrift Cooperative Society Limited,' which promised villagers rewarding returns on their investments.
It is alleged that the agents lured hundreds of people by assuring them that their money would double in a short span.
However, after collecting crores from unsuspecting villagers, the company reportedly shut down operations and fled the district.
Last month an FIR was registered against Talpade and actor Alok Nath for allegedly duping investors of over 9 crores.
Meanwhile, Takpade will be seen next in Housefull 5.
