Incident:
I started on whatsapp. The lady messaged me with offer of Part Time Job where I’ll get 30rs per subscription. And for that I don’t have to pay single rupee. She gave me first task by sharing link of Instagram link which I subscribed and completed first task. Then she shared another Instagram link for second task which also I completed. Then she said that for third task I need to chat with their receptionist named PLACEMENTINDIA (telegram channel @ @lmr0076. Receptionist asked me to send the personal details like Name, Age, Profession.
Then I got certified and then receptionist shared Instagram link as third task to complete. I subscribed and completed the third task after that she asked my bank details for processing the payment of 110rs. I gave my bank details and after 20-30 mins I received 110rs payment. 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 1500rs was the starting prepaid task for fresher people. So I paid 1500rs with the help of receptionist and then she allocated one teacher named @ @Kun97100 (telegram channel id) who will be guiding us for the trading. Then shared some steps to follow to do trading of bitcoin(https://mm.mtxs66.com). I followed the steps and completed that prepaid task and then I got paid 1800rs 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 1000rs 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 30000 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 declared that todays task is not over and they shared me third task details.I chatted with the other person to check whether it is genuine or not.He told that I got all my money. It is honest. I
By seeing this I got frightened but the rule was like if I chose to quit then they will blacklist me will not return my money. So I thought like yesterday I might have to complete only one more task with this amount so I paid that amount and played that task. After completing the task teacher again asked us to wait for another task and he allocated third task where we need to pay 50000 to 110000rs amount. Then this time one person from our group said that she need some time to manage the fund and same thing I also did. After some time she and I managed funds and paid 50000rs amount thinking that this one will be the last one task and completed that third task. After that teacher again asked us to wait for another task and he shared fourth task saying this one is the last task in which we have to pay minimum 100000rs amount. After that they told me , Reflect the task Each person needs to pay a deposit of 50% of the balance of the mtxs account. After the deposit is paid successfully, the merchant will return 50% of the deposit if he has worked for the merchant for a week and likes the task. Then i said I’m not able make such huge amount they said Retention option we have arrange 120k with in tomorrow and claim your rewards, i thought if i paid reaming task amount they will transfer my whole settlement so i barrow amount from friends and paid this to once i paid teacher send withdrawal code so i reach my receptionist but she told it’s a huge amount so check with merchant i reach him to process withdrawal he said need to some Large Channel Fee Percentage which will around 100k I said I’m not able pay you can take amount from my settlement buy he said it’s a management Rules if you paid you will get all rewards otherwise you will banned i scarred after some time i try to arrange the amount again but partially only arrange so again i reach him and said this much only I have 100k then he said pay this first i will hold your rewards balance i will help after paid this Tax amount after some time he come back and said Financial team not releasing the amount ask to pay Super Membership amount of 100k.I paid next day 100k and waited for the release of money.
After that they send a message we returned back your money, check bank account. I didn’t receive the amount. I informed them. They told me to check bank card. They done changes on my account number, blaming me you had given account number wrong.I had taken screenshot previously, shared the same to receptionist. Our side mistake happen. Again you have to pay Large Channel fee of 100k.i 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
