Delhi-Based Cyber Fraud Gang Using Fake Call Centre Busted, Seven Arrested

Police have dismantled an inter-state cyber fraud gang operating a fake call centre from Delhi, arresting seven members involved in duping victims by impersonating insurance company officials. The gang used accurate policy details to gain trust and persuaded victims to transfer money as final installments and tax payments. The case emerged after a Kalka resident lost Rs 1,97,500 and filed a complaint on April 9. Authorities seized mobile phones, cheque books, and ATM cards during raids and continue investigations.
