This episode is a tribute to one of the oldest friend of the pod, someone who we lost way too early- Sourabh Sir. A person who was loved by his family and the whole BJPod discord. The tributes you hear on this episode will tell you how much he was loved. It is our way to memorialize him and also share the grief we have felt through the last ten days.The true measure of a good life is how much you are loved and how empathically you lived and in both those count Sourabh Sir would be counted as one of the best. He will be missed by his family, all his friends and the BJPod community. Rest in Power!

We have with us Soumya Gupta who is the Editor of the Consumer Economy Bureau at Mint and has been a journalist for over 12 years reporting on consumer, retail, media and tech companies shaping India’s consumer internet economy.She is the Author of Bharat Bluff a book on the cons of India’s internet revolution, and that’s our topic for today!We discuss how people across generations are being scammed in an increasingly low-trust society by strangers and people we know. From "digital arrest" frauds and cryptocurrency schemes to misleading finfluencers and even phone numbers swapped on Google listings, scams have become pervasive, affecting individuals and families alike.Yet there is remarkably little meaningful conversation about this growing problem. The book aims to change that. It seeks to start a broader dialogue, moving us away from the instinct to ridicule victims, a reaction all too common in India and towards understanding, empathy, and practical support. Because anyone can be vulnerable, and awareness is our first line of defence.You can buy the book here - https://amzn.in/d/0aev1C9E & https://cmykbookstore.com/products/bharat-bluff You can read Soumya’s work in Mint here - https://www.livemint.com/authors/soumya-gupta Soumya’s piece on Scammers using Big Tech for Cons - https://restofworld.org/2026/tech-facebook-google-whatsapp-scams/
