During the raids, seven (07) suspects were apprehended and a large quantity of digital &amp; communication equipment was seized, including: 13 mobile phones, 09 laptops, VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) systems, SIM cards and networking devices, digital storage media etc.<br \/>\nThe items seized include 2 iPhone17, 3 iPhone16, 2 iPhone10, 2 iPhone11, 1 Samsung Galaxy S25FE, 1 Redmi -11TG5, 1 NAZRO 50 A, 1 Redmi Note 7 Pro, 1 Apple iPad, 3 Laptops Dell, 4 HP Laptops and 2 Apple Macbook, it reads.<br \/>\nThe modus operandi of the racket was the accused had established a covert (unregistered call centre) infrastructure using VoIP-based systems, enabling them to generate international virtual numbers, mask their real location using server routing and spoofing techniques, appear as legitimate service providers to unsuspecting victims, it reads.<br \/>\nInternational calls were being generated and routed through this call centre. A fake YahooMail.com website and Google advertisements were used to target victims, it reads.<br \/>\nStatement further reads, Individuals across multiple countries were approached through organized call operations and online phishing ads. Once a victim clicked on the advertisement, a toll-free number appeared on their screen. This toll-free number was operated by the suspects, who then deceived innocent people into providing their banking and other personal details. Funds were subsequently transferred into various accounts, including mule accounts and cryptocurrency wallets (primarily *USDT* ). The illicit proceeds were further layered, converted, and withdrawn to conceal their origin.<br \/>\nNotably, no cash transactions were involved, highlighting the fully digital and sophisticated nature of the crime. The transactions carried so far seem to be running into crores, it reads.<br \/>\nThe seized material\/ devices contain substantial incriminating evidence, clearly indicating a highly organized and technologically advanced criminal setup, he added. A case has been registered under relevant sections of law, statement reads.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_35768\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35768\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-35768\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/cyber-300x162.jpg\" alt=\"CIK Busts International Cyber Fraud Racket In Srinagar, Crores Involved; 7 Arrested\" width=\"300\" height=\"162\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/cyber-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/cyber-470x254.jpg 470w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/cyber-233x126.jpg 233w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/cyber-230x124.jpg 230w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/cyber-360x195.jpg 360w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/cyber-100x54.jpg 100w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/cyber.jpg 545w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-35768\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">CIK Busts International Cyber Fraud Racket In Srinagar, Crores Involved; 7 Arrested<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Srinagar, Mar 19: In a major breakthrough, Counter Intelligence Kashmir (CIK) has unearthed a highly sophisticated international cyber fraud racket operating from Srinagar, arresting seven suspects and exposing a fully digital scam network involving transactions worth crores, officials said .
