Immediately, they contact the complainant from mobile number obtained on fake ID and when the complainant agrees for getting maid. They send “X”, “Y” & others as maid and Balram who leave the maid at the house of victim and collect the money. Later on, the maid also absconds sometimes after stealing money/valuables. After that, the stolen money/valuables are distributed amongst all.
