Call centre disguised as medical shop busted for duping over 1,700 people

The Delhi police busted a call centre operating out of an office in Dwarka and arrested 12 people for allegedly cheating more than 1,700 persons of around Rs 2-5 crore by impersonating a loan agency app. According to the police, the accused were disguising their office as a medical store to evade police.

The police sent a team to Delhi’s Uttar Nagar after receiving information about an illegal call centre being operated there. Initially, one of the accused, a man named Faisal, misled the police by claiming that the employees were marketing medicines. He pointed out a few medicine boxes as proof. Later, however, the police found that the accused were working as customer care support and were offering loans to people.
