**Bhubaneswar:** More skeletons are tumbling down from the cupboard of infamous Oscar chit fund firm.
Knowing about the arrests of the firm’s chief and three directors as well as the on-going probe by the Economic Offence Wing (EOW) of Odisha Crime Branch, a group of aggrieved ten investors from Maharashtra lodged complaints with the EOW on Friday.
As per reports, the duped investors were asked by the EOW to submit their respective bonds and record statements.
Notably, the total number of investors in Maharashtra is 12,582 of six branches at Goregaon, Alibagh, Birabehida, Malad and Pune and the scam is to a tune of Rs 15 crore.
While Oscar started functioning there in 2008, investors were allegedly lured by its three lucrative schemes like fixed deposit (FD), recurring deposit (RD) and monthly deposit (MD).
They were allegedly hoodwinked with the tall promises of doubling of invested amounts in three years term and triple in six years.
