I, Sri Abhisek Pattnayak bring to your kind attention to the following facts and urging appropriate legal action against the Culprits:
That, while I surfing the internet came across an advertisement in a Quickr.com, wherein a ‘Work From Home Job’ was being offered by ELITE SERVICES, located at 4th Floor Shantikunj Apt. Nr newera circle, Dhamlej Veraval Road, Gujarat. I had applied for the said service on 22.10.2020 taking it as a genuine company and the payment was also lucrative; few minutes later I had received a whatsapp message from an unknown number, she introduced her as Purva Patel from ELITE SEVICE (Purva Patel Whatsapp number is +91-9099003210). She intimated regarding the work, which would be done by me For Elite services. Moreover, she asked for a photograph of Aadhar card and another mobile number to mail her in the following email-address purvapatel1017@gmail.com. The same were sent via E-mail on dtd. 22.10.2020.
That, on the same day, I have received an Agreement through E-mail from agreement@onlineformfilling.co.in on 23.11.2020 and I had received the login Id and Password to start the work through the E-mail info@form-cube.com.
As per agreement I started the online typing work on 24.10.2020 and completed the 1200 forms in 8 days and if I have unable to complete the 1200 forms in 8 days or not achieve 90% accuracy then I have to pay Rs.6500/- towards penalty charges as per terms of the contract agreement.
On 31.102020, I submitted the work and after 3 days, a quality check report was received via email dtd. 03.11.2020 stating that:- “your qc report is failed.
That, on 04.11.2020 I had received a mail from Advocate RAHUL KRISHNAN wherein, the said lawyer on behalf of Elite Services demanded a sum of Rs.8510/- towards penalty, the said legal notice was filled with unnecessary legal provisions in order to make more realistic and only to threaten to me.
Thereafter, I received a call from no. 9726335569 on 04.11.2020; the person calling claims to be Advocate Rahul Krishnan, who started threatened me by citing various unnecessary provisions of law and unless I fails to pay the penalty; he will be bound to file a case under Sec. 406 of IPC. I being a layman, got panic & scared by the legal notice and phone call and paid an amount of Rs.8510/-.
That, few hours later, I again rreceived a call from 7433878167 on 04.11.2020, wherein the person claims to be calling from the office of the Advocate Rahul Krishnan, the said person told me that Rs.8510/- WAS YOUR FIRST MONTH CLOSING AND FOR THE AGREEMENT CANCELLATION YOU HAVE TO PAY Rs.29510/-, received from legal.advocatelawfirm2009@gmail.com) unless the payment is not received, I have to face legal consequences. That, in order to avoid legal disputes, I again paid an amount of Rs.29510/-.
That, the agony did not end there, it continued further as I have again received a mail from one Advocate Sidhharth Verma on the same day, wherein I was directed to appear before Gujarat court of Arbitration within 24 hours for signing some documents for final closure of the agreement or if, unable to present physically, then send 21 no’s of Digital Signature Certificate by paying Rs.42989/-. The said email also contains a threating legal warning in case of failure of either physical presence or payment of Rs.42989/- the police will arrest me. I apprehending some sort of foul play, refused to pay the amount of Rs.42890/-.
Thereafter, a call was received from +919909548870 claiming to be a police officer, seeking my address. The call got disconnected and when I tried to call back, there was no response. I had contacted the advocate Mr.Rahul Krishan and Mr.Sidhart Verma and told them to refund the money which they have fraudulently obtained by way of cheating, to which both the advocates responded by telling me to approach the court of law for getting any relief and not to call them unnecessarily.
That, the imposters (Rahul Krishnan and Sidhart Verma) pretending themselves as advocates kept on insisting me to pay Rs.42890/- or face criminal charges; they also tried to negotiate the amount to Rs.30,000/- and upon non failure of such amount, the CIBIL score would be hampered.
That, on 05.11.2020, I had received a mail from noclegal123@gmail.com which was a NOC certificate of Rs.38020/-.
I, therefore, request your good self to kindly enquiry into the matter and track down the details of the Company and the account holder to whom the payment were made and the imposters (Rahul Krishnan and Sidharth Verma) as soon as possible; for fraudulently cheating me and appropriating my hard earned money illegally. Hence, an appropriate legal action may be taken against the fraud committed by the culprit under the law of the land and an amount of Rs.38020/-, I have paid may be recovered from them at the earliest.
For which act of kindness I shall be highly obliged with your good office.
Yours faithfully
Abhisek
