Even when taking population size into account, India is still vastly overrepresented compared to other countries.
Of course, tech support scams are just one particular kind of scam. Nobody is arguing that India has the largest percentage of scammers in general.
- lbrito 3y ago>Nobody is arguing that India has the largest percentage of scammers in general. That is _exactly_ the spirit of what the parent comment was implying: >they justify the scamming by saying (mostly to themselves) things like the West stole from the developing countries, so this is them stealing back That comment doesn't specify India, but is definitively a blanket statement that (most) scammers are from those filthy, no-good third-world, non-Western countries, and justify their dirty third-worldly scams as a "revenge against the West". Its a sad, racist non-argument. Quite depressing that it isn't greytexted into oblivion.
