Amazon, Microsoft, and India’s Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) have announced a major crackdown on tech support fraud. More than 2,000 Amazon and Microsoft customers were apparently affected by the schemes.
Amazon, Microsoft, and India’s Central Bureau of Investigation , the country’s federal enforcement agency, have announced a major crackdown on tech support fraud. The CBI’s post details two instances where scammers pretended they were customer support agents for two “well-known multi-national companies” through pop-ups that “falsely appeared to be security alerts” from the companies.
“In the wake of Operation Chakra-II, 32 mobile phones, 48 laptops / hard disks, images of two servers, 33 SIM cards, and pen drives were confiscated and numerous bank accounts were freezed. CBI also seized a dump of 15 email accounts, illuminating the intricate web of deceit spun by the accused.” “The illegal call centers impacted more than 2,000 Amazon and Microsoft customers primarily based in the US, but also in Australia, Canada, Germany, Spain, and the UK,” Amazon says in a blog post.
