As an Indian, I would like to congratulate everyone here, you tax returns are here, but there is a spelling mistake in your name and it would take $5000 to correct it, please call 1800420SCAM to get your refund.
bad jokes aside, these are the scum of the country and I am sorry for this shit.
If we're apologizing for national issues that aren't our fault, I'd like to say sorry for mass-shootings, exploiting poor people and the widening wealth-gap, and (worst of all) obnoxiously loud Americans abroad!
As a dutchie, i'd like to be sorry for not stopping slavery earlier, the NSB, and Auschwitz!
I should say something about apartheid
I am waiting 😀 😂
I would also like to apologize for Indian tiktok videos. That's a crime on humanity no one's speaking about. We were so tired of tiktok that we banned it :')
Hey! Someone from India!
I watch lots of scambaiting videos and I know all about the public sentiment you guys have about scammers
It's a damn shame the police in India are so easy to bribe... not that American cops are any better
American cops will rob you and then arrest you too.
There's normally at least one person waiting at the door to every scam call center waiting to give a big bag of money to the police to go away
Sometimes the guy at the door will direct the cops to a legit call center to throw them off
I know Truecaller is a privacy nightmare, but that could still help old / tech illiterate people against being scammed. Is this not available in the US?
Nah, Indian people are not to blame. This post is just racist, white people do the same kind of scams just as often but the OP only notices the ones where the call center agent sounds like an accent they associate with Indian people.
thank you for looking out for us brownies out there, but unfortunately no, most of the scammers are in India and Nigeria (two developing countries). Indian people are not to blame 100% but we are not doing anything at all to stop this shit, trust me once you see how rotten the system is here, you will understand how the government and law enforcement are not taking action against this.
I mean, of c the economy, lack of jobs and knowledge of English language have made them fertile soil for these types of scam camps.
I'm well aware of the economic factors at play driving scammers from India and Nigeria to do their thing. I am trying to bring attention to the white European scam phone banks that don't have the same reputation, your Bulgarian and Romanian and Latvian scammers, Russian, etc. There are also scam call centers in the good ol USA. It's definitely not just restricted to the two developing nations with a large number of English speakers and few opportunities that are blamed for it.
You said this post is racist, despite basically agreeing? You actually only what that other, much smaller, "scam-countries" also get named?
Please learn to read if you think I agreed. Please cope and seethe about the fact that I correctly identified this post as casually racist, ethnocentric Reddit bullshit.
You must be trying to set the record for how many times you can comment the word "cope" in one comment section. Reddit is the place you are looking for if you are after that kinda thing.
You need to keep coping, especially because I seem to have triggered you deeply by pointing out your racism. Your tears amuse me. I suggest you cry more.
Look at ya go that 3 in one comment section, 2 more and maybe they will send you a ribbon that says you're a special lil guy.
Weaksauce reply bro. Keep crying
Cope
Seethe and cry lol, you could have not fixed your fingers to let me know you're triggered and racist and mad about it, but here you are lol.
Do you people have like a list of words you automatically deem as racist when you see them, or is it just all adjectives that exist?
I suggest you cry more, and cope harder about the fact that I correctly identified OP's racist perspective.
Haha yes yes I'm the one doing the crying, not the commenters here that are gonna make an emergency visit to their therapist because they read the word indian.
You seem pretty mad for someone who's just laughing, actually. I suggest you either go develop some sense of self-awareness and work on your ignorant racism, or just cry more, I don't care.
