Indira Datta - Dec 09, 2018
The President and logo of ITC were used in a fake travel website, ITC Holiday, making people believe it belongs to ITC Ltd and Deveshwar is its president
On Friday, the police announced a tourism website using the corporate logo of ITC Ltd and the name of its chairman Y C Deveshwar to scam people. However, police have yet to arrest anyone involved in the case and are still in the process of investigating.
An investigation has been initiated into the matter but no one has been found out
This incident was discovered when the IT department of ITC Group accidentally discovered a website with the company logo and was named "ITC Holiday". On this site, there is also a fake email address under the name Deveshwar. This site tries to make people believe it belongs to ITC Ltd and Deveshwar is its president. In addition, the site also uses the ITC company's main address at J L Nehru Street.
Additionally, the fake website also provides information on how the company has linked up with top hotels and chain hotels in cooperation with ITC.
ITC chief executive officer, Nazeeb Arif, has said the company has filed a complaint with the Kolkata Police cyber crime section and Shakespeare Sarani Police Station. He also claims that the company has a strong IT department and enough ability to resist such frauds.
CO Kolkata cyber-crime defender, Sant Santuuopopadhyay has said that these fake website builders have tried to use the logo and name of the company's ITC director, making it look and win the trust of the people.
Many people think that this is the work of rival companies to lower the reputation of the company. But when asked, Arif said that this is impossible to confirm or guess who did this. He only expects those whoever did it to bear the consequences of their wrongdoing.
Network security investigators are trying to look for an IP address to find out who made the misbehavior. The police are also investigating whether people have been duped by this fake website.
