Serious allegations of financial fraud have emerged against a UK-based YouTuber running a popular channel and her husband, along with another associate, in connection with an alleged visa and job-related scam involving a significant amount of resources. A case has been registered against the trio, and the investigation is currently underway.
The complaint was filed at the Ibrahimpatnam Police Station in the NTR district. The complainant, a resident from Kothuru village, alleged that he transferred substantial funds in multiple transactions to bank accounts linked to a consultancy firm while seeking assistance for overseas employment and visa renewal. The funds were reportedly routed through accounts associated with a consultancy enterprise that is said to have operated across Vijayawada, Guntur, and Hyderabad.

Promises of Visa Renewal and Employment
According to the complaint, the victim had met one of the accused during his studies in London. During their interaction, the associate allegedly assured him assistance with UK visa renewal, a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS), and employment opportunities for his wife. Relying on these assurances, the complainant transferred the funds in phases.
Later, when a CoS document was received, it was allegedly found to be fake upon verification. Following this, when the complainant demanded a full refund, it is alleged that only a small portion was returned, while the remaining amount was withheld. The incident subsequently escalated into a formal complaint with the police.
Legal Status and High Court Appeal
As per police records, three individuals have been named as accused in the case. Notices have reportedly been issued to them, but no response has been received so far. The complaint has been registered under relevant legal provisions, and the investigation is ongoing.
Meanwhile, the accused have approached the High Court seeking a quashing of the case. The matter is currently under judicial consideration, and further legal proceedings are awaited.
Social Media Claims and Defense Statement
Social media claims also suggest that several individuals from Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and other states may have been similarly affected. Some reports allege widespread losses running into extensive amounts, although these claims have not been officially verified by law enforcement.
In response to the allegations, the prominent YouTuber has denied any wrongdoing through her public video platform. She stated that neither she nor her husband operates any company and alleged that the accusations are part of a targeted negative campaign driven by personal grievances. She also cautioned the public against individuals misusing their names for financial dealings and urged people to remain vigilant.
Investigations continue, with authorities examining bank transactions, digital records, and the alleged chain of documents to determine how the transactions and disputed certificates were processed.
