Two Indian students in the US, Kishan Patel and Dhruv Mangukiya, orchestrated a scam targeting elderly Americans. They impersonated government officials, using threats to extract nearly $2.7 million from 25 victims between July and August 2024. Patel received a 63-month prison sentence for his role in the money laundering conspiracy, while Mangukiya awaits sentencing after pleading guilty.
