Pakistani YouTuber Ducky Bhai, whose real name is Saad ur-Rehman, faces more trouble as investigators uncovered massive financial assets linked to him during a crackdown on illegal online gambling promotions.
Renowned journalist Javed Chaudhry revealed startling details, stating that authorities found 600,000 dirhams in Dubai, Rs150 million in Pakistani bank accounts, and Rs325,000 in digital wallets. All amounts have been seized and transferred to the government treasury.
According to the National Cyber Crime Investigation Authority (NCCIA), Ducky Bhai allegedly used his YouTube channel and other social media platforms to promote unregistered gambling apps. These promotions reportedly caused financial losses to many unsuspecting users.
Officials confirmed that evidence collected from his mobile phone, including WhatsApp conversations and payment records, directly linked him to the gambling network. Investigators believe the fraud may involve billions of rupees.
During the ongoing probe, several other influencers and content creators, including Iqra Kanwal and Mudassir Hussain, have also come under scrutiny. Authorities are now expanding their investigation to track the full scale of the operations.
Ducky Bhai, who is currently in custody, already faces legal action for promoting illegal apps. With new evidence surfacing, further charges may be brought against him.
Cybercrime experts say this case highlights the growing misuse of social media platforms for illegal financial activities. The NCCIA has urged the public to remain cautious about online promotions and report suspicious activities.
The controversy surrounding Ducky Bhai has sparked debate within Pakistan’s digital community, raising questions about influencer accountability and ethical content creation. Authorities have assured that strict measures will be taken to curb online scams and protect users from fraudulent schemes.
