So recently I've become a victim of SMS/Call bombing after getting an individual removed from a WhatsApp group
Here's an article about the same: https://indianexpress.com/article/technology/tech-news-technology/sms-bombing-what-is-it-and-how-to-stay-safe-8050074/
"SMS Bombing is an attack where a large number of messages are sent to a particular number in a very short period of time, to harass a user or disrupt the normal working of a device. One of our colleagues recently woke up to hundreds of OTP messages from food delivery platforms like Zomato, Zepto, and Licious, all within a span of a few hours. He had just become the victim of what is called SMS Bombing where a user’s number is bombarded with a large number of messages or even OTP calls within a very short period of time with a clear intention to harass a user and disrupt the normal working of a device."
This individual has gone above and beyond to keep the tabs open and keep the scriptts activate for which I've received thousands of SMS and dozens of calls. Seems like those are just scriptts that run from your browser or locally on your computer so these request for OTPs and others log the IPs of the requestor computer/device.
It has pushed me to seek lawyer assistance into the same, for which I'm looking for paid lawyer services to help me file a police/cyber crime report and further pursue this issue as per recommended.
I'm located in Pune if that does help and I'm a foreigner working here in India hence why I am looking up for assistance on the same.
I do only have the phone number of the perpetrator which belongs to a business (small business owner).
