Text of Complaint by Gaurav Gupta:

I had enquired about a maid on Quikr because my mother was ill and our maid had quit suddenly without informing us. MK Manpower Domestic Help Services called me and offered to provide maid for cooking and cleaning. After charging Rs.1800 as security deposit they asked me for my Quikr Id. I didn’t have a Quikr Id so they charged me Rs.1499 for creating a Quikr ID. Then they charged Rs.499, Rs.899 and Rs.900 on account of paper handling charges, company service charge and GST respectively. They sent me pictures of two maids and asked me to select one. When I asked for GST invoice they didn’t reply. Ultimately nobody came and I ended up losing approximately Rs.6000 in this scam. I did a reverse image search on the maids picture and was shocked to find that these fraudsters had used the image of a girl who was working in an IT company. They claim to be offering their services through Quikr but clearly these people are scamming ordinary citizens in the name of Quikr.
