To the disgrace of the country, several indian students studying in the US are discovered to be engaging in chargeback fraud. They committed this offence in exchange for movie tickets. A preliminary investigation led to the filing of a complaint against some students. Many of the students arriving in the USA on planes with dollar ambitions may believe that it is a free country. Their lives are ruined by the nasty friends they hang around with. In this country, never take anything for granted. Everything is being watched. Life will be ruined if you are found out. The parents' hopes from their native india would be dashed.

Here is a thorough news release on this matter from one of the American film distributors.

"The alleged chargeback fraud on indian movies is being looked into by B&B Theatres, based in Kansas City. In 2022, a massive $250,000 in chargeback claims were made. In essence, a consumer purchases movie tickets using a credit card, watches the film, and contacts his bank the next day to say that his credit card has been compromised and that the purchase of the movie tickets was illegal. Theaters will be requested to repay these sums by the credit card company.

In order to look into this scam, B&B Theatres contacted the KCPD (Kansas City police department) and hired a detective agency. When these transactions were closely examined, it became clear that their theatre in Overland Park, Kansas, had roughly $150,000 in chargebacks in 2022 and another site in Morrisville had about $100,000.

The majority of these tickets are purchased in groups of seven or more, which is an interesting fact. A preliminary study reveals that the majority of these transactions are carried out by recent graduates working at consulting firms in Kansas City and other locations.

Detectives are keeping track of all transactions using the IP and MAC addresses from which they were generated. Charges against these Individuals will be brought very shortly. These could be considered a class 1 misdemeanour or felony and lead to deportation. Given that these scams were performed on the premises of consulting firms, this will cause a number of legal problems for the owners of such businesses. students and individuals, don't let your involvement in these illicit activities damage your careers.

In Atlanta, a similar incident occurred. The guy selecting tickets was caught on camera by the theatre owner. The guy received an email offering him the chance to retract his false claim with the bank, after which a report was made to sandy Springs police Department (SSPD) in Atlanta. Several other chains are making reports with the local police throughout the same process. people who participated in these frauds and thought they were clever will face justice."
