Golden Finance News: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) of India has recently successfully cracked a cross-border cybercrime case targeting victims from the United States and Canada. In this operation, the CBI arrested the criminal suspect Rahul Arora in Delhi and seized cryptocurrencies worth approximately 327,000 US dollars (about 280 million rupees), as well as 26,400 US dollars (about 220,000 rupees) in cash.
During the surprise searches of three locations, investigators discovered a large number of criminal tools, including international communication devices, caller ID forgery software, social engineering tools and voice recording, etc. These tools facilitated the criminal gang to carry out cross-border fraud.
It is learned that this operation is one of the important achievements of the CBI’s “Chakra-V” multi-institutional cooperation program. This plan actively collaborates with international organizations such as Interpol and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of the United States, focusing on the field of cross-border cybercrime. It aims to effectively combat cross-border cybercrime activities and maintain the international cyber security order through multi-party collaboration and resource sharing.
In recent years, cross-border cybercrime has become increasingly rampant. Due to its anonymity and convenience, cryptocurrencies are often used by criminals for illegal fund transfer and money laundering. The successful operation of the Indian CBI this time not only dampened the arrogance of criminal gangs but also provided a reference model for international collaborative efforts to combat cybercrime. Subsequently, relevant institutions will continue to conduct in-depth investigations, further hold other members of the criminal gang accountable, and at the same time, strengthen preventive measures to prevent the recurrence of such cross-border cybercrime incidents.
