There's a very interesting two part episode of the podcast Reply All[1] where they delve into one of these tech support scams. Worth taking the time to listen to.

This one's great because they actually fly to India and meet the scammers! Definitely worth listening to both parts!

Thank you for linking this podcast! I just listened to the two episodes, and man, that was some awesome journalism.
