  I guess the police were running low on bribe money.

      You’ve never been to either country, yet you make assumptions based on fucking movies?? Let me guess, you believe in aliens! And elves, and hobbits, and faeries! Educate yourself, then opine. Or at least, hide your ignorance a little, jfc.

    They almost certainly won’t. Every so often they make a big show of these raids and then quietly drop it later. Check out some of Jim Browning’s videos to see how the raids work out.

    They’ll just move house again. India has done absolutely nothing to address this which is disgusting.

      Yeah, it’s weird though why specifically in India these call centres pop up and not anywhere else?

      Can’t it have anything to do with Western companies outsourcing there en masse to fuck over Western workers, thus making it plausible that someone with a thick Indian accent is calling you on behalf of them?

      Or the fact that Indian wages are kept artificially low, with abysmal workers rights, as is common with the countries doing the lion’s share of the world’s manufacturing, so it makes sense for people to live off of the literal scraps of Westerners?

      I think the real disgusting thing is that the relatively small amounts of money that you can scam out of westerners is able to sustain a whole industry in India. If these guys got proper jobs with proper pay, they wouldn’t need to do this to get ahead.
