CBI nimmt Hauptbeschuldigten in Fall von transnationalem Cyberbetrug fest

Das Central Bureau of Investigation hat Lakhan Jaiprakash Jagwani im Zusammenhang mit einem Cyberbetrugssystem festgenommen, das auf US-Staatsbürger abzielte und 8,5 Millionen Dollar einbrachte. Der Fall betrifft illegale Callcenter, die seit 2022 betrieben werden.

Die Behörde leitete das Verfahren am 9. Dezember 2025 ein. Ermittler werfen dem Syndikat vor, illegale Callcenter in Delhi, Noida in Uttar Pradesh und an anderen Standorten in ganz Indien betrieben zu haben. Die Mitarbeiter gaben sich als Beamte der Drug Enforcement Administration, des Federal Bureau of Investigation und der Social Security Administration aus.

Der Betrug stützte sich auf Anrufe, E-Mails und VoIP-Leitungen unter Verwendung falscher Identitäten. Die Opfer in den Vereinigten Staaten verloren insgesamt 8,5 Millionen Dollar.

Frühere Operationen des CBI führten zur Schließung eines Callcenters in Noida, wo Beamte 1,88 Crore ₹ in bar sicherstellten. Die Festnahme von Jagwani markiert einen weiteren Schritt in den laufenden Ermittlungen.
