I Nitin Verma from Delhi recently lost more than Rs 21 lakh after falling for a work-from-home opportunity. The scammers contacted me on WhatsApp and offered her a part-time job requiring them to subscribe to a YouTube channel to get a commission. Against this fraud I have filed a complaint in the cyber cell of the Model town, New Delhi. My complaint no. is 30804230012856
The person who contacted me identified themselves as Dipti S. Londhe, an HR Assistant in the HR department of Iprospect digital agency. She suggests I earn extra money by subscribing to a YouTube channel about the work-from-home opportunity. The offer further mentioned that the company will pay Rs 50 for each YouTube subscription.
In order to learn more about the opportunity, i responded to the sender’s message. The sender then provided me with some links to YouTube channels to subscribe to. Following the instructions, i subscribed to two of the YouTube channels and was later contacted by another person who asked me to share her Telegram ID.
“I subscribed to two channels; I got a call from the receptionist Julia who asked me to share my Telegram ID. When I messaged julia on Telegram, she subscribed to some other channels and paid. 150 Rs. Then I was added to a Telegram group having 180 members. All these people were performing some task,”.
Later, the assistant, Julia asked me to complete more tasks that were assigned to me through Telegram in order to earn more profit.
The next day, they invited me to a group BTY PART TIME JOBS, and told me to do 25 tasks per day. After 5 tasks, they gave a prepaid task to pay to start of 1000/- and told us to give some commission by doing some bitcoin tasks by uploading and authenticating of our proofs in mexd2.com. and sent me the full amount with the commission of 150/- via UPI. Then goes 5000/- tasks that I should select for 2nd time and in that, there is a group task involving 3-4 people. They made us start with 9000 and next go 41,500 like that up to 100000 for the 4th task. I borrowed from. my friends and paid, as they said if I quit in the middle, they’ll ban me and lose all my paid money.
Then they said I did the wrong task so to recover the loss to the merchant, i need to pay 434343/- again and said that is the last task and I can get my complete paid along with some commission. After completion, I asked the payment code to give for the receptionist to get the money deposited, my assigned teacher Jeremy David @Mr_davidd_Jeremy said that I again need to pay for 1 more task to recover as I made the mistake. After long discussions with my mentor and receptionist, i had no option but to pay again 3.62lakhs to get my initial paid ones, for which i took a bank loan and paid them.
But even after that, I didn’t receive my amount, saying, my credit score is not sufficient to withdraw the amount, and asked to pay 4 lakhs, which i paid, as i don’t have an option but to lose all. Then they said, the amount is too large to withdraw, so open a large channel account by paying 25%of the total amount which can be payback immediately. For which I took a personal. Loan and paid them.
When I said the same, they somewhat edited the confirmed msg with me and said you checked and agreed that the withdrawal code number is correct, & since they have tried so many times so the withdrawal code gets locked and now to unlock the withdrawal code, you must pay 5lakhs rupees more. Which I denied and they said, if you will not play then you will not get your money back. Now they have even removed me from the group. Due to this scam, I have lost approx. of 21 lakhs rupees. i later understand that I got scammed and now am in complete debt for Rs. 21lakhs. Please help me to recover my amount.

I found that all the money that was sent to the bank A/C area belongs from Mumbai and is in ICICI & YES BANK.
I have attached a copy of my bank statement, and A/C transfer details with all the screenshots, in which the amount was transferred.

I would request you to please investigate this issue on top priority & get these scammers behind bars and please get my money back.

Thanks & Regards
Nitin Verma
