INDIAN POLICE SHUT DOWN SIN SCAM CALL CENTRE

Sameer Sharma, a New Delhi deputy police commissioner, said in a release in recent days that the force arrested 32 people between the ages of 19 and 37 after discovering the “swanky international scam call centre targeting Canadian citizens.”

The officers also seized 55 computers, 35 cell phones and other equipment including the scripts that the scammers used during calls.

When investigators approached the call centre to ask questions and didn’t get a “satisfactory answer,” the suspects eventually “divulged that they were engaged in calling foreign (Canadian) nationals & impersonating (themselves) as genuine Canadian police/Service Canada officials.”
