ChainCatcher news, according to Bitcoin.com, Indian actress Tamannaah Bhatia has been questioned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) of India for allegedly promoting the "HPZ Token" platform, which is accused of deceiving investors through a cryptocurrency scheme. Authorities are investigating whether she supported the scam and whether she promoted IPL content related to illegal gambling. It remains unclear whether Tamannaah Bhatia is involved, but the investigation is ongoing.

Tamannaah Bhatia had previously been questioned in Maharashtra for similar allegations. Investigators looked into her promotion of the Fairplay betting application, which is under investigation for encouraging the viewing of IPL matches related to illegal gambling.

Reports suggest that Tamannaah Bhatia promoted IPL content on Fairplay, raising concerns about her role in supporting questionable activities. Investigators are also reviewing her appearances in HPZ Token events, where she received appearance fees, to determine whether her endorsement helped legitimize the platform, which is now allegedly part of a scam.
