Hello sir and mam ,
I got scammed around 9 lakhs , I got scammed on the name of job opportunity.
I got a text on whatsapp in which they offered me a part time job .
I will attach the screenshot of that chat .
Then they convinced me to do this and first task was to rate places on google maps
When i did that task they credited me 150 rupees first
Then they said to me to move on telegram and to contact their receptionist ,that receptionist person added me in the group where 100 of peoples were added and doing the same task
I got confidence on them
Then they asked us to do prepaid task otherwise we will not able to continue this job
So they said to me do 2k transfer to the account.
I transferred the money then they give me a website which is “https://cobyin.info/index/index/index.html” and i log in into this website which was looking similar to the crypto investment website.
Then they assigned me one another person called “teacher” and he guide me to buy up process in that website .
When that buyup process completed 2800 was showing in my that website account
Then that teacher said to me to contact my receptionist again to get my salary credited and i did the same
And i got 2800 inr in return ,at this point i thought this is crypto investment process so it is legit .
Then they told me to do 5000 inr transfer and they did the same process and I got 7000.
After this they said to me to do 9000 ,when i transferred 9k to their account they added me in a group called “Vip” in which we have to perform group tasks. There were 3 members in the group except me in which one was that teacher and other 2 was participating.
Now they told us that we have to do group task in which we have to complete 4 order and the 4th will be the refund order
So 1st 9000 i have done already
Then they said to do 30000
And then 70000
And then 200000
When all the payments done i asked for refund they said you have done the mistake on portal due to this merchant has losen their money ,so you have to do one recovery task in which you have to pay 4 lakhs.
I refused them to give 4 lakhs but the ther 2 paid 4 lakhs and showed the screenshot in the group that they are credited with their commission amount.
I thought i will also get my money so I arranged the funds and transferred them 4 lakh
When i transferred them 4 lakh they said your credit score is 80 and for full payement refund you need your credit score should be 100 ,for this you have to pay 2lakhs more
Because i have trust on them then i arranged 2 more lakhs and transferred them.
Now they said because your refund amount is larger than 10lakhs you need to upgrade your account for which you have to pay 5 more lakhs ,at this moment i realized i got scammed and refused to give them money,
Now they are pressuring me to transfere 5 lakhs more.
So this is my story
I have registered complained of this whole incident to the police ,and they are checking and said to me there are minimal chances that you will get your money refund,or you will get minimal amout from this .
Because those scammers are very clever and tracking money trail is difficult .
I will attach all FIR copy also
