Bihar Village Linked to International Cyber Fraud Network

Bihar Village Linked to International Cyber Fraud Network

In a small village in Bihar, India, a man named Mukesh Kumar was found to be running an illegal operation that helped people from other countries commit cyber fraud.

He had special boxes that could use many phone cards at once to make calls that looked like they were coming from India, but were actually from places like Cambodia and Thailand.

The police found out because there were too many calls coming from his village compared to the number of people living there.

They raided his house and found the boxes, phone cards, and other equipment.

Mukesh said he didn't know what he was doing, but the police think he was part of a bigger group.

The village has few jobs, and some people think Mukesh was trying to make easy money.

He was arrested and later released on bail.
