I did not say that Indians have a culture of scamming.

I said that there is a problematic culture of scamming centered in India.

THAT is a big difference.

I called out how it sounded racist, but that doesn't mean there isn't a problematic scam culture that is centered in India.

Whatever the cause, I would like the problem to be resolved and not just filed away under "that's racist".

Edit: rereading this, I bet most of the same can be said for the US stock market. And the US credit system. Only difference is them asshats are scamming under the guise of business instead of the guise of tech. And I'm pretty sure they aren't hitting up Indian grandma's.

I'd be happy to see US stocks and Credit Ratings disappear tomorrow.

I'd be happy to see Indian tech scams disappear tomorrow.

They're all scams.

Sorry, India population is 1.4 billion. For some reason I was thinking closer to 4 billion. My bad.

So let's adjust it to "hundreds of millions."

It's a problem in India though.

Scams exist everywhere, but India literally has billions of people running call centers dedicated to shamelessly scamming elderly English speakers out of their money.

I mean, how many times has Kitboga made the call and was greeted by a Swedish, or Spanish, or French accent.

No, it's always an Indian person who wants to get team viewer installed and bank accounts signed into.

Sidenote, I want to know why Target gift cards are the gold standard for money laundering.

Anyway, it sounds racist, but it's still a fact. India's far and away leading export is posing as people who are tech savvy so they can scam the elderly, be it the retired living on social security or Boomer CEOs who would be caught dead before properly paying and investing in their actual employees.

Infosys is just the next step in the path of "this is Microsoft support rebate department and I jUsT rEfUnDeD yOu ThE wRoNg AmOuNt."

Edit: I did something my fellow millennial do that I try not to. I put 'literally' next to a hyperbole statement.

I apologize for the grammar foul, but it doesn't sink my point.

I'm convinced Infosys kicked back 20% of the payment to the CIO.

He is a complete con artist who has been bleeding the company dry for 5 years.
