A team of Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force has arrested eight persons and claimed to have busted a gang involved in cheating people through fake holiday packages and mobile tower rental agreements. Following the arrest yesterday, the team sealed two call centres in Delhi from where calls were made to gullible persons.
Uttar Pradesh STF Additional Superintendent of Police Triveni Singh said the company’s office was located at Laxmi Nagar in East Delhi. 64 call centres were their channel partners. These call centres are located in Delhi, Gurgaon and Noida. He said, STF will scrutinise records of all the 64 call centres to ascertain their involvement and to calculate the magnitude of the scam. They also cheated people under the pretext of providing loans and sanction of ATM at their place. So far, 14 crore rupees transactions have been detected.
