I got a message from a person on Telegram asking if I was interested in working part time online. I said yes, they took my basic information, and I also asked the same. They assigned a other person; her name is Swetha Joy. She messaged and took the required details and shared a link to create an account in my name. She also asked to fill out the bank details and other things. I asked my doubts before starting the work, and she tried to clarify. After creating my account, I did the swiping task and earned money in the thousands for a couple of times. Later, she asked to recharge from my end and asked to do a swipe. I did recharge and swiped. All of sudden I stated getting a bonus pop up in that my reached and earned money used to go minus; if I do the minimum amount of recharge, then only I would be able to withdraw the money. My money got stuck, so I did recharge a couple of times. Each time I did before withdrawing, I used to get an unexpected bonus and balance going minus again. Recharge the minus amount to withdraw. Then I was not able to recharge; it went in lakhs. I said I could do so, and they asked me to pledge gold or property and recharge the account. At once I can withdraw the bulk amount. I said I could not do that, then another person whose name is Abhinav comes in and he gives an idea to talk loan online apps; once cash out is done, I can return the loan amount.
Also, he said he will help me with some money from his end so that my withdrawal will happen. Like this, I made a loan of 7.5 lakhs plus my amount of 3.30 lakhs, which I recharged but withdrew, and on that, they asked me for some more lakh amount to recharge at once. I will get the big amount, which is there in the swiping account, which is in minus now.
After that, I stopped and requested they repay my amount, but they didn’t respond.
I logged an online complaint, and I also filed a complaint near my area cybercrime department.
I have become bankrupt now; my only hope is if the cyber police help to get back the amount. I can close my loans and lead a normal life.
