A Massive Scam Exposed in Donkey Milk Business
A fraudulent donkey milk scheme has taken farmers in Telugu and Kannada states by storm, leaving them devastated after millions of rupees were swindled in the name of a business opportunity. The scam, orchestrated by Nutalapati Murali, the founder of the so-called “Jenny Milk” company, has now been exposed after many victims came forward to report their financial losses.
The Rise and Fall of Jenny Milk
Three months ago, Nutalapati Murali set up the Jenny Milk company in Anantapur district, Andhra Pradesh, promising farmers in Karnataka and surrounding areas a lucrative opportunity to profit from donkey milk. Murali convinced around 200 farmers in Hospet, Karnataka, that they could make large sums of money by rearing donkeys and selling their milk. The scheme appeared legitimate as he offered farmers three donkeys for an upfront payment of Rs. 3 lakhs, promising to buy the milk at Rs. 2,000 per liter.
The victims, lured by the prospect of high returns, eagerly paid the required amount, expecting to receive their donkeys and start their milk production business. However, after handing over their money, the farmers received their donkeys but found themselves unable to sell any milk back to the company. The promises of regular milk purchases were never fulfilled, and the company began making excuses to delay payments.
The Investigation and the Fugitive
As suspicion grew, one farmer took action and filed a complaint with the local authorities. An investigation soon revealed that Nutalapati Murali’s company lacked the necessary permits for such a business, and his claims about the health benefits of donkey milk were exposed as a sham. The authorities moved quickly to shut down Jenny Milk, seizing the company’s office, but Murali had already absconded, leaving behind a trail of devastated farmers.
It has now come to light that the company was a classic Ponzi scheme. Farmers who had invested in multiple donkeys were left with no recourse, and many are now struggling to care for their animals. The scam has left farmers in a financial crisis, with some reporting losses of up to Rs. 9 crore, as they were convinced that donkey milk could cure various ailments, including asthma and fatigue.
The Donkey Milk Business: A Dubious Promise
Donkey milk has gained a reputation for being an expensive commodity, often marketed as a cure-all for various health issues, especially for children and asthma patients. It is also claimed to be used in the preparation of beauty products like soaps and creams. However, the fraudulent nature of the Jenny Milk business has shown how such claims can be exploited to manipulate people into making large investments with no actual returns.
In the aftermath, victims are now left with numerous donkeys and no way to recover their investment. As they gather outside police stations, asking for help, many are unsure how to deal with the tens of donkeys they bought under false pretenses. Meanwhile, Nutalapati Murali continues to evade arrest, leaving the farmers to face the consequences of his deception.
A Lesson in Caution
This scam serves as a harsh reminder of the risks involved in unverified business ventures. The “donkey milk” fraud has taken advantage of people’s trust and desperation for profitable opportunities, especially in rural areas where such schemes often go unchecked. As authorities continue their search for Murali, the case remains a sobering example of how vulnerable individuals can fall victim to deceptive practices.
The question remains: will the fugitive mastermind behind this donkey business fraud ever be caught, or will the victims continue to walk in circles, hoping for justice? Only time will tell.
