A gang of 24 individuals, led by an MBA graduate named Ankur Gupta, has been arrested for operating a call centre in Bisrakh and scamming US citizens by offering false policy renewals and technical assistance.
The gang obtained phone numbers and insurance records from the dark web, made around 1,500 calls per day, and earned approximately Rs 10 lakh through their fraudulent activities.
The Noida police, with assistance from US investigating agencies, apprehended the gang after receiving a tip-off, seizing cars, laptops, phones, and foreign currencies.
