Indian Navy Clerk Leaks Secrets for Crypto: You Won’t Believe Who “Priya” Was!

The great cogs and wheels of Indian defence have ground noisily to a halt – not because of foreign invasion, or a dragon awakening in the Bay of Bengal, or even the Apocalypse (though, knowing bureaucracy, that would probably be filed under “miscellaneous incidents”). No, the panic was set off by one Vishal Yadav, a humble Navy clerk from Rewari, who achieved every office worker’s dream: becoming a headline, and not even for a record-breaking number of sick days. 🚨

Yadav’s journey into the hall of fame for ill-conceived life choices began on Facebook, when a “Priya Sharma” slid into his DMs. Only, Priya was about as real as the free vacation giveaways in your spam folder, and twice as dangerous. Facebook begat WhatsApp begat Telegram, each platform more “secret” than the last (because nothing says “secured info” like passing it around messaging apps with more leaks than an old teabag).

Having thus cemented a tragic cross-border bromance (or was it a romance? Yadav, heroically, will neither confirm nor deny), he started feeding her — er, “him”, let’s be fair — nuggets of classified info, including the dazzlingly top-secret Operation Sindoor. (For those unfamiliar, Operation Sindoor is a thing that happened and probably made some map somewhere turn a different colour. Military operations are often like that.)

Yadav’s price? About ₹2 lakh. It started with bits of pocket change for “just a peek” and worked up to ₹50,000 for the big leak – proof that in matters of national security, inflation is alive and well.💸 The handler even dabbled in cryptocurrency, ensuring that both the money and the reason for using it would be baffling to everyone over 40, which (coincidentally) includes most of those in charge.

Why’d he do it? Well, investigators say his gaming habit set him on the shadowy path. Apparently, slaying digital orcs wasn’t paying the bills, so Yadav levelled up to “NPC: Notoriously Passing Classifieds.” Forensic sleuths, possibly using magnifying glasses and stern faces, have dug up relevant chats, transaction logs, and military secrets jumbled alongside high scores and, no doubt, enthusiastic spam from game developers.

With Yadav now enjoying complimentary police hospitality, the country’s left wondering: is crypto for spies the new Swiss bank account, and exactly how many Priya Sharmas are currently online? 🕵️‍♂️ Stay tuned for “Operation Clean-Up Spreadsheet,” starring: Everyone.
