Complaint Details
My name is Sabitabrata Roy resident of Kolkata and i would like to put forward my grievances towards the social websites that very frequently cheated every person in the name of providing job. Quite a similar incident happened with me in the past one month. I have been looking for job in software development company at Kolkata. Suddenly on 26/11/2014 a call came from Change4Job.com located at Noida a person called Deepak Sharma told me that he got my cv from Shine.com and he told me that there are few vacancies in small companies at Kolkata for which i have to registered on their website by paying Rs 2246. Eventually i agreed to pay that amount and he told me since i have 6 months of experience in a software company then it would be better if i pay an additional amount of Rs 3538 for resume modification along with cover letter. Then i also agreed to do so and he told me that even if any how i am not able to crack the interview then whole amount of (Rs 2246 + Rs 3538)= Rs 5784 will be refunded and he will sent question paper for the interview via email and initially a telephonic interview will be conducted by the software company of Kolkata on 29/11/2014. I asked about the companies name and he provided me the list of 5 companies out of which 2 names are genuine and rest 3 names are fake. No such interview has not yet been provided. Then when i realized it on 29/11/2014 that it's a fake organisation i tried to communicate with them via mobile number of their company which is their inbound number but it remain switched off most of the time. Sometimes i have been able to communicate and sometime not. Then suddenly on 11/12/2014 when i have been able to communicate with that mobile number(08860650117) they said that my whole amount of Rs 5784 will be refunded after 7 days. Even i waited long for 15 days but no amount was refunded to my bank account and neither they call me and whenever i tried on that inbound mobile number it is saying mobile has been switched off. Moreover their land line number on the website is also fake since whenever i tried it is saying temporarily out of service. On 30/12/2014 they suddenly called me back and said that my amount has been refunded and told me to check my balance at ATM but i checked it and nothing money was deposited in my account. Then they told me to come online into their website and to follow the similar steps of payment gateway which they have guided to me during initial payment of Rs 5784 and there is an option for refund through which they will refund me my amount. That person Deepak sharma forwarded the call to their support team andone of the member of their support team told me to follow the steps associated with the refunding of money but after doing this suddenly i found that instantly within a second instead of depositing Rs 5784 in my account they once again debited from my account Rs 2471. I realize very soon and i told him that why they took that amount then they said it was by mistake and they will refund that amount of(Rs 5784 + RS 2471)=RS 8255 within upcoming few days. Suddenly on(2/1/2015) they called me at around 1:25 P.M. that to get that amount of Rs 8255 i have to again pay an amount of Rs 7000. But i refused to do so and i asked about the reason. They said that it is the rule of their company which i have to obey, but i demanded that i need my amount by demand draft of Rs 8255 and to send that demand draft through speed post with acknowledgement to my postal address. But they said that company didn't want to take risk at all by doing demand draft and it is their company rules to refund amount in such fashion. I clearly told to Deepak Sharma that have they told about all this rules while taking initial payment from me then i wouldn't have registered on their website. But i finally refuses as well as my parents also refuses to pay that amount since i have a doubt that it is a fake organisation. Then he trickily told me ok our company will refund you the Rs 8255 so they told me to be online and they will forward a code number to my mobile and i have to say that code number to them. Even i was naive to this online banking services and i was asked to say the net secure code and i told them, and as soon as i did so i got the message in my mobile that my Axis Bank account has been debited by Rs 9000 and it finally became(Rs 8255 + Rs 9000)= Rs 17255. Now when i asked them why did they took that amount then they say that no need to worry since within 24 hours my bank account will be refunded by Rs 19223 as RS 17255 refund value + Rs 1968(as penalty charge). Penalty charge for the reason that they haven't told me earlier that in payment gateway any amount below Rs 10000 can't be refunded. But later i reviewed through my nearest Axis Bank branch that it is a fake concept and finally i found they have looted me as well as cheated me and they are now saying that i have to again deposit Rs 15000 more to their company's Kotak Mahindra Bank account means=(Rs 17255 + Rs 15000)= Rs 32255 and in lieu a total amount of Rs 40000 will be refunded to my bank account. I am quite upset as well as nervous since i have no job right now and moreover huge amount have been debited from my account. Today on 7/1/2015 even i verified their Kotak Mahindra bank account number in Kotak Mahindra Bank head office at Kolkata to know their organisation address details but it is quite different than the earlier address which i have been provided when i asked them. Moreover on Monday(5/1/2014) they debited from my AXIS BANK ACCOUNT Rs 700 by remotely hacking my account and hence total amount became=(Rs 2246+Rs3538+Rs2471+Rs9000+Rs700)= Rs17,955. Moreover they still attempted three transactions of amount Rs 7549,RS 4000, Rs 2500 on Snapdeal.com,Paytm.com,Mobikwik.com but transaction failed due to insufficient fund in my AXIS BANK account. Moreover Deepak Sharma told me to send a scan copy of my latest qualification certificate, photo, voter identity card to his email address Shinejobsrecruiter@asia.com but I didn’t send anything to him.
