Mumbai Police serving justice! In less than 24 hours, culprits caught in my Amazon delivery scam So, here's the probably the final update I'm gonna add for scam, until and unless Amazon does some more skullduggery. In less than 24 hours after contacting Senior Police Inspector of Bangur Nagar Station, Mumbai, Mr. Anil Thakre, he wholeheartedly cooperated with me, and Assistant Police Inspector from Cybercell, Mr. Vivek Vijay Tambe, got on the case, took my statement and assured me that they'll be caught. And guess what, before it was afternoon the next day, they had nabbed culprits, and then before the evening, they had confessions... 5 11 replies
