    We Shutdown a Scam Call Centre in India AGAIN!



    Jim Browning and I join forces again to shut down another scam call centre in India. But it didn’t go according to plan. While filming undercover, the call centre boss caught me, and I had to make an escape. What happened next was surprising, too; the Delhi Police Cyber Crime Unit actually raided the call centre! All the action is captured in this incredible vlog.

    Watch the rest of the videos on this call centre:

      This is just a personal opinion of mine:
      I think the police actually allows scams to happen. They don't openly accept that they are allowing the scams to happen, but I really think that they don't bother interfering coz
      1) It is tiring to conduct such arrests, they already have a lot of other jobs to do… this just increases their workload more than it already is.
      2) These scams ultimately brings money to contribute to India's GDP, so why not partially allow it ? (This is just a conspiracy theory)
      3) Even if these scammers get caught, they probably bribe the police to just stop their scamming and not arrest them. While they probably start scamming in some new building later when the situation is better.

      They will never get caught and even if they do then they will tip them off and be released. It wont happen until foreign governemnt talks to indian and make it a big issue and put it into a penal code and put an act of crime

      I wish I can join in the fight. I am from Singapore. We too are facing the same problems. People are getting scammed every single day. The scammers that my country is facing now is quite similar or even more high tech. 😢

      I think the police tipped the owner off and only did the "raid" for the look of it. I heard the police are bribed daily and shutting these centres down is not profitable to them. What a shame. Upside is that at least nobody got scammed for a day or two, i guess.

      You are absolutely correct about the loss of trust of legitimate call centers that have people from India and obvious Indian accents. I try to remind myself that I called and used the number from the phone application, did not get the call from them and that it will be fine. But finding out they do legit work on the side scares me. It has me wonder if they steal information for customers of the legit work for their scam work.

      Karl you need to get your embassy involved. Let them attack you and get your government involved. Let’s see what happens when you get attacked and the Indian government does absolutely nothing because they are supporting the scams.

      The fact that these scam callcenters can do this just in the open. In a three story building right next to a busy hub in a major city… well says enough. The government is complicit in this.

      This only tells you how bad windows computers are ,people believe them because they do get error messages and problems with windows computers ..they wouldn't be able to do this with Apple computers.

      Not corrupt cops my ass
      It's obvious they are all on it and couldn't care less about scams as long as they are scamming people outside India and bringing in money to this dumbsterfire of a country
