CBI was hunting criminals in 5 cases. “Tech support” deceived users of major companies, including the online store Amazon, which sent pop-up notifications to potential victims on behalf of the companies and convinced people of problems with their computers. You are offered a phone number where you can get free advice and a solution to the problem.
But when the fake tech support provided “help,” the computer was infected and then demanded “hundreds of dollars” for a fix.
A total of 76 searches were carried out in five states of India.
