Raipur Call Center Busted for US Loan Scam with China, Gujarat Links

The video exposes a fake call center in Raipur that defrauded US citizens by offering fake loans, asking for personal information, and then creating fake checks with the help of accomplices in China and Gujarat.

What's right

The video accurately describes a fake call center operation in Raipur that targeted US citizens with fraudulent loan offers.
Police raids in March 2026 confirmed the existence of such call centers, which lured victims with promises of loans and then exploited their personal information.
The scam involved telling victims their credit scores were bad and requiring personal details to 'improve' them.
The involvement of masterminds from Gujarat and a technical group in China for creating fake checks is also consistent with investigative reports.
The names 'Prosper Loan' and 'Easy Loan Approve' were used by scammers, with 'Prosper Loan' being a legitimate company often impersonated, and 'Easy Loan Approve' being associated with scam operations.
The general tactics of asking for personal information, including social security numbers and account details, are common in these types of scams.
The visual elements implying arrests and seized evidence align with the police actions reported in the news.

What's wrong

There are no significant factual inaccuracies in the claims made in the video's transcript.
The only minor nuance is that 'Prosper Loan' is a legitimate entity, but scammers impersonated it, which the video implies as a direct scam entity rather than an impersonation.

Breakdown

The claims in the video are largely accurate and corroborated by multiple reliable sources. Recent news reports from March 2026 confirm that Raipur police busted several illegal call centers that were actively defrauding foreign nationals, including US citizens, by offering fake loans.

These operations were often masterminded from Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The scammers would contact potential victims via calls or emails, promising loan approvals.

A key tactic involved informing victims that their CIBIL/credit score was poor and demanding personal information, such as account numbers and the last four digits of their social security number, under the guise of improving their credit score or processing the loan. While 'Prosper Loan' (Prosper Marketplace) is a legitimate lending company, it has been widely impersonated by scammers. 'Easy Loan Approve' is also a name associated with fraudulent loan schemes.

Furthermore, reports indicate that a technical group, reportedly operating from China, was involved in creating cloned checks using victim's account details, and the overall scam network had connections in China and Gujarat. The description of individuals in handcuffs, police presence, and seized documents and laptops is consistent with the reported police raids and arrests. [1][2][3]
