Noida Cyber Crime Police uncovered a fake call centre in Sector 16 used paid advertisements to lure foreigners with bogus technical support. Victims were persuaded to install remote access tools, enabling collection of banking and personal data. Sixteen suspects were detained; multiple devices and networking equipment were seized as authorities warn of evolving scam tactics.

Noida Cyber Crime Police exposed a fake call centre in Sector 16 that allegedly ran online scams targeting foreign nationals. Investigators said callers were duped through bogus technical support pitches, and large sums were routed through complex financial channels.

Officers detained sixteen people from the premises during the raid. The team also recovered four laptops, fifteen desktops, fifteen monitors and sixteen mobile phones. Police further seized several headsets, microphones, routers and modems believed to have been used for operations.

Fake call centre online scams used paid ads to target foreigners

According to officials, the fake call centre promoted online scams through paid adverts on search engines and social media platforms. These adverts carried toll-free contact numbers. When foreign nationals dialled these numbers, calls were automatically diverted to specialised calling software installed at the Noida facility.

Police said the accused staff pretended to be technical support executives and claimed the caller’s computer or phone was hacked. Once fear set in, they persuaded victims to install screen-sharing tools. This access allowed the group to view devices and quietly collect banking and personal details, while a blacked-out screen increased panic.

Fake call centre online scams fixed fraud amounts and moved funds covertly

During interrogation, officers learned that the fraud amount depended on each victim’s bank balance. If the account held a small sum, the demand ranged from 100 to 500 dollars. Larger balances were handled by senior operators, who asked for much higher payments.
