Sinopsis

2016 marks the year that cheap cellular data brought hundreds of millions of Indians online for the first time. A decade since then, most of the Indians are learning to interact with strangers and conduct transactions online for the first time. While this access has empowered us, it has also left us vulnerable. India is now the world's scam capital, and ordinary Indians are its biggest victims.

Connecting individual human stories at the heart of digital scam headlines to systemic gaps in oversight and governance, Bharat Bluff exposes how aspiration, technology, and weak safeguards can collide with devastating effect. It also dwells on what exactly is turning India's internet revolution into the spring well of online fraud and what, if anything, we can do about it.
