I guess the police were running low on bribe money.

Bro watch Narcos Mexico. Its crazy how the cops in these countries operate. Anyone here ever been to India ? I think its like mexico. I have never been to both countries but they look kinda same in movies.
Bro watch lord of the rings. It’s crazy how many orcs there are
You’ve never been to either country, yet you make assumptions based on fucking movies?? Let me guess, you believe in aliens! And elves, and hobbits, and faeries! Educate yourself, then opine. Or at least, hide your ignorance a little, jfc.
Lets see if they actually charge them
They almost certainly won’t. Every so often they make a big show of these raids and then quietly drop it later. Check out some of Jim Browning’s videos to see how the raids work out.
They’ll just move house again. India has done absolutely nothing to address this which is disgusting.
Yeah, it’s weird though why specifically in India these call centres pop up and not anywhere else?
Can’t it have anything to do with Western companies outsourcing there en masse to fuck over Western workers, thus making it plausible that someone with a thick Indian accent is calling you on behalf of them?
Or the fact that Indian wages are kept artificially low, with abysmal workers rights, as is common with the countries doing the lion’s share of the world’s manufacturing, so it makes sense for people to live off of the literal scraps of Westerners?
I think the real disgusting thing is that the relatively small amounts of money that you can scam out of westerners is able to sustain a whole industry in India. If these guys got proper jobs with proper pay, they wouldn’t need to do this to get ahead.
One thing is that the scam call centers usually pay very well there. From what I’ve heard, even teens can get in on it, and they can make as much as someone with a full college degree just working for a scam company. The owners are making six figure sums each year.
And the amounts aren’t always small. Sometimes they’ll find a particularly vulnerable elderly person and net thousands, or even tens of thousands.
I think there are a lot of factors. India being poor, corrupt and nationalistic are probably the main ones tho imo.
Low regulation and not tech savvy police or law makers. And focus is on other more pressing violent crimes. Politicians using police to do their bidding. All leads to some people doing whatever the hell they want and scamming old ladies in western countries. Those people are a problem to locals as well. They will scam anything from anyone.
Also, India is used heavily for actual tech support and call-centers. Many of these places hide amongst them, sometimes in the same buildings as a legit operation which helps mask them.
I’d imagine that a bunch of the people staffing the scam centers are defectors from a legit one, and take their knowledge - and probably customer lists - with them
