"Deepak demanded a cheque of Rs 1250/- as processing fees in favour of Dhanlaxmi Bank and also got the relevant papers. He gave his pen to complainant to fill up the details in the cheque. On September 5, a girl informed the complainant over phone that his account will be opened within a week," V Renganathan, Additional Commissioner of Police, West District, said.
