Uttam Nagar Call Centre Scam: 83 Employees of Anand Enterprises Detained After Fake Bank Identity Exposes Racket
In a joint raid, Rajasthan Police and Delhi Police detained 83 people, including 43 women, at a fake call center in Uttam Nagar, Delhi. The facility operated under 'Anand Enterprises' as part of an alleged multi-state credit card scam. Triggered by a fake bank ID complaint in Deeg, authorities seized digital equipment for an ongoing probe.
In a major joint operation, the Rajasthan Police and Delhi Police raided a fake call centre operating out of a residential building in southwest Delhi’s Uttam Nagar. Authorities detained 83 people, including 43 women, in connection with an alleged credit card scam and cyber fraud racket targeting citizens across state lines. According to reports, the joint police team seized laptops, computers, and documents during the crackdown on the firm operating under the name "Anand Enterprises".
Investigation Triggered by Fake Bank Identity
The investigation originated in Deeg, Rajasthan, after a customer reported being approached by an individual claiming to represent a private commercial bank. When asked to confirm his credentials, the suspect forwarded a digital business/visiting card over messaging platforms.
According to ETV Bharat, the victim verified the document with acquaintance employees at the financial institution, who confirmed that the identity card was fraudulent. A formal complaint filed by the branch manager led to an FIR being registered at the Cyber Police Station in Deeg.
Subsequent intelligence and technical tracking led investigators to arrest an initial suspect in Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, whose interrogation exposed the operational hub in Uttam Nagar.

Police reported that the center was managed by a 47-year-old Uttam Nagar resident. According to officials cited by Times Now, telecallers used contact lists supplied by third-party data providers to market credit cards. When customers consented, callers processed the applications through official banking portals to maintain an appearance of legitimacy while leveraging unauthorized data and fake credentials.
Ongoing Probe and Evacuation
All 83 detained individuals were transported to Rajasthan by bus for further interrogation to ascertain their specific roles in the operation. The raid triggered commotion outside the Uttam Nagar office as family members gathered to protest the mass detentions.
Law enforcement agencies continue to audit the seized digital equipment to trace data sources, evaluate financial damages, and determine whether the syndicate operated similar schemes in other parts of the country.
