A woman in the UAE has been arrested here for deceiving people into giving her $50,000 (183,500 dirhams) by promoting herself as a victim of a failed marriage on social media platforms and asking for money to support her children, officials said.
The woman duped several people with her posts on social media and made the money in just 17 days, said a Dubai police official on Sunday.
The Director of Criminal Investigation Department of the Dubai Police said the woman posted pictures of her children to beg for living expenses “to raise” them, the Khaleej Times reported.
