Abstract:
On April 8, 2017, Indian immigration officials arrested Sagar Thakkar, known as Shaggy, in Mumbai as he arrived on a flight from Dubai. The 24-year-old is suspected of operating a multimillion-dollar fraud through a network of call-centers, who called Americans and posed as IRS agents and persuaded Americans to pay money which the call-center operators said they owed the IRS.
