On May 5, 2025, police in Udaipur, India raided an illegal call center that operated out of the Hotel Sapphire in Dhan Kotda to facilitate what is defined as a “first of it’s kind” Amazon refund scam, where

Canadian residents received fraudulent text messages regarding “undelivered parcels” in their name.

The victims will be asked to “verify” their information by scanning a QR code, which is actually used to deposit money to the crypto wallet of Ahmedabad resident Deepu Patel, who has reported connections with senior officials with Gujarat police.

41 scammers were arrested: 32 men and 9 women. Four Gujarati managers were identified as:

Harsh Patel from Ghatlodia

Ashish Rajput from Bapunagar

Keyul Shah from Naranpura

Dhamil Shah of Satellite.
