I encountered Sushil Chouhan, who runs a scam call center in New Delhi, targeting innocent people. My investigation began with a Microsoft scam popup that led me to call a toll-free number, connecting me to a scammer posing as a technician. I managed to reverse the connection and access multiple computers in the call center, uncovering their operations, including payment processing through Stripe and various ad campaigns. I found sensitive files on Sushil's computer and documented his activities, including recruiting new scammers. Let me know if you want to see more investigations.

3/ When I called this toll-free number, I got connected to what sounded like a busy office. The person answering the phone introduced himself as a "Microsoft Certified technician." He told me that my computer was infected with a trojan virus and that I needed to connect it to a "secure server" (remote access software).
