It also seized $327,000 ( about Rs 280 million ) in cryptocurrencies and $26,400 ( about Rs 220 lakh ) in cash, successfully cracking a transnational cybercrime case against victims in the United States and Canada. During raids at three locations, investigators found tools such as international calling devices, fake caller ID software, social engineering tools and voice recordings.
