1/ Meet Gaurav Trivedi, an Indian scammer who impersonates Microsoft support and then rips off innocent vulnerable people.

He tried to scam me......but instead of paying him money, I hacked into his laptop and turned on his live webcam feed.

2/ Gaurav runs a classic Microsoft tech support scam out of his apartment complex in Raebareli, India.

It starts with a fake popup that locks your screen, blares a loud warning sound, and tells you to call “Microsoft” immediately or risk losing all your data.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

3/ The scammer’s main goal? To trick you into giving them remote access to your computer using tools like AnyDesk or TeamViewer.

But when Gaurav tried it on me… I gave him access to my virtual machine and used it to hack into his system instead.

4/ Here’s how I identified him:

1. I accessed his webcam and snapped a clear shot of his face.

2. He pulled up the softphone dialer and boom, his real name appeared on the screen: Gaurav Trivedi.

3. The wifi card on his laptop was active, letting me trace his exact location

5/ These are the exact coordinates I traced from the scammer’s device: 26.2182947, 81.245599

6/ I basically got a front-row seat to his life, watching him eat, sleep, and then scam innocent people… all through his webcam.

8/ @RaebareliPolice scammers like Gaurav Trivedi are ruining lives here!!

I’ve reported this multiple times, but action is needed now. Please step up and protect innocent people.

If you want to see more investigations like this one consider following my account and leaving a like. Thanks for reading and have a nice day!

From one of the commenters

@lajexka1

There’s an entire YouTube genre of white-hat hackers identifying online scammers right down to the buildings they operate out of. Over 90% originate in India.

Trump could eliminate it by pulling every Indian H-1B until Indian authorities crack down on their scammer industry”.

“Trump could eliminate it by pulling every Indian H-1B until Indian authorities crack down on their scammer industry”.

Just block all incoming IP addresses from India. That will make them fix it quick. like overnight...

I don’t believe that for a second. I think they are staged. You don’t just “hack” someone’s laptop. They are selling fiction that people naturally respond to because we love to see the tables turned. The only way to get a scammer is to find them go to their house and beat them up manually.
