Air travellers cheated of ₹9 lakh through fake ‘Lounge Pass’ App. Details here

A major scam targeting air travellers in India has come to light, with over 450 passengers losing more than ₹9 lakhs (around $11,000) through a fraudulent Android app called “Lounge Pass.” The app posed as a service to provide airport lounge access but instead stole users’ money. Authorities warn that this scam may be larger in scale, as several similar fake apps are circulating and this deceptive strategy is rapidly gaining momentum.
