To quench your thirst, YES, the second season is also a true story. The show is based on lottery and KBC scams that happened in Jamtara, Jharkhand. It is one of the most famous OTP frauds that happened in India to date. A group of people who mostly believed in looting people (mostly rich) used to do OTP frauds, KBC frauds, and credit and debit card frauds by calling people and looting money from their bank accounts. To present some statistics, about 867 new cases were registered in 2018 and 824 in 2017.

This is not the end, the cases even increased to 2000 at a time. Most of the culprits were found hiding in Jamtara. So, there is no doubt the show is based on a true story. The first season showed us how a group of boys used to loot money from people through their debit and credit cards by asking them for OTP.

Now, what will be the story for season 2? It is very clear that season 2 is true and is also going to be a lot more dangerous. The second season will revolve around the scams that happened in the 21st century way. This means the scams through WhatsApp and the internet that has increased in the past years will be their story. The second season will not fully show the 21st-century version as the first season was left incomplete, so a little story about the calling scam is still left. Season one has seen huge success, and season 2 is also going to be.

The characters we saw in the show are also real-life characters, they exist in real life from which some are still behind the bars and some flee away and the cops have no clue where they are. There has always been a time when we have been called from some unknown number asking for OTPs or bank details. This has happened to everyone, we always get calls regarding some scams.
