The National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) has taken action against 206 suspects involved in illegal call centers that scammed victims through dating apps. These raids took place in the federal capital, targeting individuals who approached potential victims through online dating platforms and gradually gained their trust.
The suspects then encouraged victims to invest money through fraudulent online platforms promising financial returns. One of the cases involved a call center operating in Sector G-10, which was allegedly conducting unlawful cyber activities under the guise of a legitimate IT business. A significant number of women were also found among those allegedly working at this facility.
The call centers were also involved in fraudulent activities under the pretenses of loan recovery, online trading, and investment. The NCCIA seized computers, electronic devices, and other digital materials linked to the fraudulent operations. The suspects have been booked under relevant provisions of the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act, 2016, along with several sections of the Pakistan Penal Code. Further investigations are underway as part of these ongoing cases.
