This was covered on my local sports radio show. In freakkin North Carolina USA.

Labourers masquerading as cricket players, clever camera angles and fake team names were all part of an elaborate hoax cricket league in western India shown on YouTube that was used to draw money from gamblers in *Russia*, police said on Monday.
Fashioned along the lines of the popular Indian Premier League, a group of men in the western Indian state of Gujarat hired a field, set up cameras and asked local labourers to dress up in team uniforms and play cricket.

 

Am having a tough time feeling sorry for the people who were gambling on this. If anything, I feel bad that these clever  fraudsters were caught.

Gujjus are everywhere 

 

Bengaluru cops bust fake call centre racket, arrest 72 employees from city, 6 kingpins from Gujarat


The Whitefield police said, “The callers mainly targeted victims from the United States of America and the modus operandi involved sending text, voice, and email messages to potential targets that a fraudulent, suspect transaction or purchase has been noticed in one of their accounts — for instance a bank account or an Amazon account — and that they are calling on behalf of the bank or Amazon to resolve the fraudulent transaction.”

 

I think I have received a call from them about Bad IRS returns asking for my SSN

There are a few guys who pose as vulnerable old men and exposed them on youtube. They access their camera and show everyone in the room who was involved in scamming.

I was humoring him and he realized, he did a Kohli on me, called me Ben Stokes and hung up on me.

Yeah ... I suppose so, but this is as harmless as it comes. I mean ... the gamblers were, anyway, gambling their rubles away; this just accelerated their losses. 

 

I may be rationalizing, but to me, this feels different than calling elderly people and asking for their account/personal information so you can siphon money off them.

It is a fake T20 league not a fake IPL 

 

With so much demand for cricket in India, many folks would have watched this one too esp. if organized properly

Russians get pissed off and send John wick to "handle" all these scamsters.

Blockbuster guaranteed.

Fake organizers should create another t20 tournament where real Kohli hits the century and lift the trophy 

Even in this league he can his century only if bowlers are asked to bowl middle and leg with an offside field.
