Amit told police he started his career as a tutor. He came in contact with Arora and his son who was in need of a job through one Anil Kumar.

The officer said: "Amit took Rs.55,000 from Arora and with the help of a person known to him, got Arora's son employed with the HDFC Bank. After some time, the father-son duo sought Amit's help for getting into a government bank."

It is then that Amit took Arora for a ride. Amit procured a copy of a joining letter through the internet and handed it to Arora besides visited the zonal office of the Andhra Bank in Chandigarh so the duo believed his credentials.
