Bengaluru Kitty Party Scam: Glamour, Gossip and a Rs.5 Crore Fraud
A Bengaluru woman cheated many women in kitty parties by promising high returns on fake investments, stealing crores of rupees.
In Bengaluru, a shocking scam has come to light involving a 49-year-old woman named Savita G, who cheated many women through kitty parties.
Savita, a resident of Basaveshwaranagar, lived in the area for 35 years with her family. She was known for attending kitty parties, dressing nicely, and speaking in a friendly way. She claimed to be a real estate expert, gold trader, and even a social worker with high political contacts. But she was actually a fraudster.
According to police, Savita joined different women’s kitty circles and promised to double their money. She told stories of gold investments, real estate profits, and big government tenders. Many women believed her and invested ?1 lakh to ?10 lakh or more. Some even convinced their family members to join.
The scam got bigger with 20-30 women already filing police complaints. Reports suggest she may have cheated people of ?5 crore to ?20 crore. Police believe the actual number could be even higher.
Savita did not work alone. A man named Puneet P helped her by creating fake investment deals. Together, they rotated money to keep people thinking everything was fine. But by mid-2025, people stopped getting returns, and calls went unanswered. Victims filed complaints at Govindaraja Nagar and Basaveshwaranagar police stations.
Police have arrested both Savita and Puneet. They are in police custody, and investigations are on. Police are checking bank details and suspect that Savita used fake contacts with big officials to fool people.
The police are asking other victims to come forward. This scam is a lesson to always be careful with money, even if the person seems friendly or part of your social group.
