Text of Complaint by Anakha:

I got a message from whatsapp from a person introduced herself as Maya saying there is vacancy for online jobs and gave 3 simple tasks like following public instagram accounts. I did that and she gave a telegram account and told me to contact the receptionist called Nihaarika.I contacted her and she immediately transferred rs 110 to my bank account.And she added in a telegram group and told that the tasks will be given in this group and I should send screenshots in the group and also to her to get the payment. After one day at first they were given insta following tasks and later they gave prepaid tasks. First day I choose 2000 and after payment she yold me yo make a account in https://mm.mavrck6.vip and directed me to a teacher called vip laxmanan and told he will give further instructions.He told some steps and I got 2500 back and I gained faith in them.And for the next time i again asked for 2000 and she told it is for one time only. So I asked for 5000. Again she told me to contact laxman and he add me to a group of 4 people. I think they were also scammers.After payment, he gave another round that we should choose one amount from 3 options. I choose the least of 6000. Then he told tasks are completed. And the receptionist transfetred me 14000 rs. I was very happy and once again gained faith on them.Next day first I choose 5000, and then the second order was of 35200. I paid it. I thought it will be the last round. But after that teacher told there is third round and I have to pay 119000. I told them that I dont have that much money and I need to back off.But they told it is not possible and after completion of all tasks only I will get the money back.At that time one group member told he need some time to add beneficiary. At that time I asked him to give exemption for me.And he reduced the money to 77780. And one of the group member suggested ne to take instant loan. I was not knowing he was also a scammer and I believed her and took instant lian and paid 77780 rs. I thought it will be the last round. But again he asked to pay 200000. I completely refused it and understood it is actual scam. I told them to give my money back. They told after completion of 4 rounds only they can transfer money. Then I called them and they were not answering my calls. After that one person called me and tried to convince me that they are genuine and I can pay 150000 instead of 2 lakhs. I refused and I asked him aadhar and pancard. He disconnected the call. After that I tried both receptionist, teacher and the one who called me. But no one were responding . please help me to get back my money. Below are the contacts of those I have mentioned above
