The arrest of 26 people by CBI after exposing the cyber fraud of foreign citizens and especially American citizens shows how extensively cyber fraudsters are active in India. Under Operation Chakra, CBI conducted raids in 32 cities against cyber thugs. In four of these cities, Pune, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad and Visakhapatnam, cyber criminals were running four illegal call centers to defraud people. This is not the first time that such call centers have been exposed. Even before this, such call centers have been found running in many cities, especially Delhi-NCR. Some of them cheated foreign citizens and some cheated Indian citizens. No one knows how many illegal call centers in different cities of the country may still be engaged in defrauding people by throwing dust in the eyes of the police and other agencies. In our country, many gangs are active everywhere who cheat people through mobile phones. Earlier they were active in some parts of the country but now their activism can be seen everywhere.
Cyber criminals sometimes cheat people by luring them, sometimes by threatening them and sometimes by giving false and misleading information. For some time now, they have been cheating people by posing as fake banks, police, CBI and customs officers. It is not hidden from anyone that the cases of cheating people by arresting them digitally are not stopping. Of course, people are becoming victims of fraud due to ignorance and lack of information, but one reason is that cyber criminals have become unbridled and cruel. Sometimes it seems that they have no fear of police and security agencies. As the use of mobile phones is increasing and the trend of online transactions and shopping is increasing, fraudsters are getting an opportunity to increase their activities. The issue is not just that there are not enough laws and regulations against cyber fraud. The problem is also that the police and other agencies are unable to suppress the violence of cyber thugs. Many times they are not even able to identify the fraudsters. Because of this, many victims of fraud are not able to get their money back. Cyber fraud is also becoming rampant as these fraudsters are becoming successful in obtaining SIMs under fake names. It is difficult to understand why such a system is not being made so that no one can get a SIM in a fake name. It is definitely a matter of concern that people are being duped by making WhatsApp calls from Pakistani numbers. It is not true that cyber thugs are running rampant in Digital India.
