Text of Complaint by Anbarasan A:
I started on whatsapp. The lady messaged me with offer of Part Time Job where I’ll get 50rs per subscription. And for that I don’t have to pay single rupee. She gave me first task by sharing link of Instagram to follow celebrity which I done and completed first task. Then she shared another instgram link for second task which also I completed. Then she said that for third task I need to chat with their receptionist named Upendra (telegram channel @ccgg555. Then I asked receptionist for the third task where she gave a reseller task for registering. I registered there then receptionist asked me to complete the authentication process by uploading account detail along with basic information like name, age & Occupation. Which also I did. Then I got certified and then receptionist shared third task to complete. I subscribed and completed the third task after that she processed the payment of 150rs and I received in my account after 10-15 mins. I thought this is genuine job. Then they asked me to join their telegram channel where they gives daily 25 tasks to complete and get the payment. In which prepaid tasks also was there which I was not aware about. I got the first prepaid task to do where 2000rs was the starting prepaid task for fresher people. So I paid 2000rs with the help of receptionist and then she allocated one teacher named @Rupa2211 (telegram channel id) who will be guiding us for the trading. Then shared some steps to follow to do trading of bitcoin. I followed the steps and completed that prepaid task of Rs.2000 again and then I got paid 5400rs via receptionist. Then I kept completing other tasks which got posted in the group in which I got another prepaid task. Second time I again tried to opt for 2000rs plan for which they denied and informed that I can opt it for once as fresher only. Then they asked me to choose task of 5000rs or above. I chose for 5000rs and paid the amount to merchant through receptionist. This time the task need to be completed in group where 2-3 people are were required. This time teacher made 1 group and asked us to agree some terms and condition and then shared the same steps to complete the trading task. Which everyone did and then teacher asked us to wait for another group task and shared some tasks in which we have to choose one amount and need to pay to merchant via receptionist by sharing the code given by teacher. Then I opt for the lowest amount which was 60000 due insufficient money where other members wanted to opt for the highest amount. As everyone has to select the same option others selected the same which I did. Then we paid the amount and then completed the task by repeating the trading task by following the steps given by teacher. Then after completing the two task teacher asked us to wait he is checking whether there is another task. And after few moments teacher againg given a task, the minimum amount to pay was 1,30,000/-. I declined to pay the same as I don’t have this amount to pay. I’m not able make such huge amount they said Retention option we have arrange 250k with in tomorrow and claim your rewards, otherwise you will be banned i got scarred after some time.
I really shocked and a thought of getting trapped in scam got in my mind I started thinking what to do. One thought was like to complete the last task and completing the prepaid task and getting the commissions but then I thought what if they didn’t pay me the whole amount with commission? That day I didn’t paid for the last group task. They asked me to arrange the fund and pay the amount till next day which I still not did. I don’t know what to do now? I have kept off the telegram application since morning and waiting for some solution which I still not got. I request you stop such scams to happen. Such scams are happening mostly on telegram channel and those needs to be stopped. As these people are doing fraud with lots of people and everyday so many people are losing their money in such scams
