Dramatic video of Indian conman Yug B Chauhan drinking soda before being arrested by undercover agents in Michigan
Yug Chauhan was leisurely drinking a soda when an undercover agent pretended to be an old woman from Michigan to meet him.

Video of the Michigan Sheriff’s Office’s dramatic arrest of an Indian con man has been released. The case is interesting because the conman was tricked by the police and an alert shopkeeper and foiled an attempt to defraud an elderly woman. A female police officer went to meet the courier, Yog B. Chauhanhanded over the box of gold coins, although inside the box were golden chocolate coins. video It was revealed how police spoke to someone else, possibly someone who had been communicating with the woman who had scammed the woman, to verify something – and then surprised courier Chauhan when she got out of the car, still pretending to be an old woman. In the video, Chauhan can be seen unknowingly drinking soda and was shocked when he realized those were police officers.The courier didn’t know he had been deceived. When the police got out of the car with the box in his hand, he was looking around. She put the box and phone in the car and grabbed Johan’s hand from behind as another agent came in and pushed Johan into the car.The arrest occurred in May after a 79-year-old Michigan widow was brainwashed for days into saying her Social Security funds were being misused for terrorist purposes and that she had to buy $700,000 in gold coins and hand them over to scammers posing as government officials. The woman went to a store to buy gold, but the alert shopkeeper noticed something was wrong because the woman was in a hurry and had no interest in the gold she bought. The store owner notified the Sheriff’s Office to be safe. The police visited the woman and then decided to go with the con man’s plan – only to send undercover agents to meet the courier in the old woman’s place.After his arrest, Ug said he had never met the man who gave him instructions over the phone and that he was just a courier.The Sheriff’s Office released a list of red flags that something might be a scam:

  • Demand immediate payment
  • Pressure to act immediately or keep secrets
  • Requests for payment via gift card, cryptocurrency, wire transfer, prepaid debit card, or systems such as Venmo, Zelle, and Cash App
  • The caller claims to be law enforcement, your bank, the Social Security Administration, the IRS, Amazon, Microsoft, or Apple
  • Threatening arrest, imprisonment, account suspension, or utility shutoff
  • Unexpected text or email with link
  • Request remote access to your phone or computer
  • A prize, job, or job opportunity that is “too good to be true”
  • Asking people you meet online for money
  • Spoofed phone numbers, strange wording, or poor grammar
  • Refuse to let you hang up or verify information
