Indian call center employees posing as the IRS may have bilked Americans out of millions

I get a couple of calls a week from scammers pretending to be from the IRS. I also get calls from scammers telling me that my Windows computer (I don't use Windows) has a virus. I might not get as many of these calls, at least for a while, because a major call center in India was raided on Tuesday, and 770 people were rounded up.

From Washington Post:

More than 200 police officers descended on a tall, glass-fronted office building where the nine call centers were operating during Tuesdays midnight raid after being tipped off by neighbors.

It looked like a regular office building and employed a lot of young people who spoke English and had a good knowledge of computers, Singh said. It was a very sophisticated operation they were running.
