WASHINGTON– In a shocking escalation of the U.S.-India trade war, India has launched a coordinated cyberattack against President Donald Trump and the White House, flooding their phone lines with an unprecedented wave of scam calls. The move comes in direct retaliation for Trump’s tariffs on Indian goods, which New Delhi officials labeled “economic aggression.”<\/p>\n
According to sources within the Oval Office, Trump’s personal phone has been auto-dialing Indian tech support numbers every hour since the tariffs took effect. “It’s like they’ve hacked his speed dial,” said a frustrated White House aide. “Every time he tries to call Vice President JD Vance, he gets some guy named ‘Raj’ screaming about Windows updates and car warranties.”<\/p>\n
The scam calls have reached crisis levels, with the White House switchboard receiving over 10,000 calls per day from “Microsoft Support” claiming Trump’s computer has a virus. “We’ve tried blocking the numbers, but they just keep coming,” admitted a harried operator. “Last week, we paid $10,000 to ‘fix’ the President’s iPhone. Turns out it was just a guy in Mumbai with a bad accent.”<\/p>\n
India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi gloated about the campaign on Twitter X, posting a meme of Trump trapped in a call center loop with the caption “When you try to tariff the king of outsourcing.” Modi later announced plans to upgrade India’s scam call infrastructure to 4K resolution, promising “hyper-realistic” threats of IRS audits and suspended social security numbers.<\/p>\n
The White House has responded by installing a “Scam Call Filter” on all phones, but insiders claim it’s no match for India’s elite cyber warriors. “We’ve tried everything-AI blockers, voice changers, even hiring our own scam callers to fight back,” said a desperate Trump advisor. “But India’s just too good at this. It’s like they’ve been practicing for years.”<\/p>\n
