In a major crackdown, Jaipur Police have uncovered a massive ₹5 crore cyber fraud operation being run through fake call centers in the city’s South district.
Police teams from Mansarovar, Shiprapath, and Shyamnagar stations collaborated to arrest six individuals, including a former student union president, for orchestrating the scam. The fraudulent operation involved the use of bogus call centers and dummy bank accounts used to funnel money from victims across multiple states.
According to DCP (South) Rajarshi Raj Verma, one of the main centers of the scam operated under the name “Jaipur App”, located at Sunny Mart in Atish Market.
The arrested accused include:
Surendra Dautar (Bhargupath, Mansarovar)
Chandrashekhar (Gokhle Marg, Shiprapath)
Ritesh Jangid (Sardarshahar, Churu)
Mahesh Swami, among others
During coordinated raids, police seized significant evidence, including:
Rs4.56 lakh in cash
39 ATM cards
15 mobile phones with active SIMs
6 laptops, 1 computer, and 5 payment scanners
Investigations have connected the gang’s bank accounts to over 90 cybercrime complaints filed in Rajasthan, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh.
The accused provided access to bank accounts and infrastructure to cyber fraudsters, who used them to scam unsuspecting individuals under various pretenses.
Police believe this is just the tip of the iceberg and further arrests are expected as the investigation unfolds.
